QUESTION : "When looking for a new job at a foreign company, CAN I ASK ABOUT SALARY?"
第一個(gè)問題：在找外企工作的時(shí)候，我可以問有關(guān)工資的問題嗎？

Money is certainly important and relevant. Sure, we all want more and more money, but the way in which you ask this delicate question is very important. Your BEST BET (best choice) is to save this question for the end of the interview. First demonstrate or show that you KNOW THE COMPANY, present your personal and professional strengths, then inquire as to the salary you can expect for your position.
工資問題當(dāng)然是很重要的。當(dāng)然了，我們都想要更多更多的錢，越多越好。但是你提問這個(gè)問題的方式非常重要。你最好的做法是在面試快結(jié)束的時(shí)候再把這個(gè)問題提出來。首先應(yīng)標(biāo)初選你了解你所應(yīng)聘的公司，展示你的性格和職業(yè)上的長處，然后再詢問你所應(yīng)聘的職位的工資情況。

You should ask, "SEEING MY EXPERIENCE AND MOTIVATION, WHAT STARTING SALARY COULD I EXPECT?"
你應(yīng)該這樣問，“根據(jù)我的工作經(jīng)歷和能力，我所期望的起薪能達(dá)到多少？”

KEEP IN MIND (remember) that normally it is considered impolite to ask the interviewer about his/her salary.
記住：一般來說，詢問面試者的工資是不禮貌的。

Often the interviewer will ask you what salary you expect. To answer this question you must carefully weigh your last salary and how much extra work and responsibility you expect in your new position. THE INTERVIEWER IS NOT A BANANA DEALER. Do not try to bargain too much.
通常，面試者會(huì)問你你所期望的薪金是多少。在回答這個(gè)問題的時(shí)候，你必須仔細(xì)地考慮你現(xiàn)在工作的薪金，以及你認(rèn)為在新的職位上需要承擔(dān)的工作量和加班的情況。面試者并非香蕉販，不要與他/她進(jìn)行過多的討價(jià)還價(jià)。

State how much you think you are worth, then let the interviewer give you an offer. Too much bargaining will prove you are only out for money, while caring little about the company. This is NOT professional. Your best bet is take your last salary and add about twenty percent to it.
說明你覺得自己的工作價(jià)值，然后讓面試者給你這個(gè)工作。太多的討價(jià)還價(jià)只會(huì)讓面試者認(rèn)為你只關(guān)心錢，而不關(guān)心公司。這樣做沒有表現(xiàn)出你的職業(yè)精神。最好的做法是在你上次的薪金上加20％。

Example :If you made 3,500 RMB a month as a secretary at a Chinese company, ask for 4,000 RMB at the new foreign company. Remember, you are worth every penny!
如果你在一家中國的公司里做文秘，那么當(dāng)你應(yīng)聘一家外企的時(shí)候，就不妨要求4，000人民幣。記著，你的工作值那些工資。

BE AWARE THAT SOME FOREIGN COMPANIES PAY THEIR EMPLOYEES IN AMERICAN DOLLARS, SO BE SURE TO ASK ABOUT THIS.
有些外企公司給職員付美元，因此要記著詢問這一點(diǎn)。
