职场英语：面试之工作目标篇
有时候面试中招聘者会提问应聘者有关工作目标的问题，目的就是了解应聘者做事的风格，以及应聘者对这份工作的看法。当然由于应聘者还不是很了解自己所应聘的工作，在回答问题时并不一定面面俱到，因为在实际当中会碰到自己计划中所没有考虑到的问题，所以大致说明自己的计划目标就好了。BASIC EXPRESSIONS 基本句型表达

在回答“How long will you stay with
us?”这个问题时，特别要注意，不要用明确的时间概念来回答“我将在贵公司呆多久”。因为不管怎样回答，都会招致主考官进一步询问“为什么?”所以最保险的回答方式就是“How
long I will stay with the company depends on whether the company and I are
satisfied with each other.”
