1,which companies had  ever you  serviced?
2,what company you're servicing now?
3,what job you prefer in your work?
4,what makes you wanna come out from current company and choice my company?
5,how to do the job if you get passed in this interview?

All these questions  are  asked by a foreign interviewer,and I don't give my opinion and response to my friends due to no suitable answered occurred in mind.so I put the questions here for collecting more reasonable advices.I think all the advices posted here will make all of us get a excellent job easily in future!go ahead,dear friends

due to no suitable answered occurred in mind

due to is a preposition (it comes immediately before a noun). It isn't a conjunction (it can not connect two parts of a sentence) : I had to wait hours because the plane was delayed (NOT I had to wait hours owing to the plane was delayed).
Moreover,in mind seems not to be official.

yes,I agree with what your said.

Actually more and more foreigners would like to said "due to" for explaining the reason that caused somthing.I think it's very oral.

as your said "in mind"  is not a popular word indeed.many people prefer to say"have no idea of sth"

Thanks for your response

Though 'due to' can be used to explain a reason, it is not a conjunction but a preposition (that means you can not join a clause with it, while it can only join a noun), no matter it is used formally or orally.

We may say:  I can not give out my opinions to them, due to the deficiency of suitable answers in my mind.

I think opinion and response are similiar, so it appears redundant. Sometimes a longer sentence might not be better than a shorter one.

Besides, if you wanna use 'due to', be aware of the comma (,), for it can not be omitted.

3,what job do you prefer in your work?
Your boss, certainly.

The first three questions  totally depend on your friend's experience and preference.
About the fourth question, I would say: I want to challenge myself, I want to realize my value and the most important thing is that I want to do what I really like.
5.Just give him your opinions adn plans to let him trust you

i am still in college now .and i want to work in a foreign company ,will someone tell me what can helpme now ??

welcome to cotact me !

the good answers depend on two factors, one is the research you have done about the targeted company, you need to find out their focus and value, their culture and their strategy, the job description, and background information even the intervieewer's information. The second factor is your strengths and expression.

Ego is not good thing when you prepare the question or in your interview. make sure you understand the difference between ego and confidence.

agree

for my opinum,
better use "as i don't have suitable answer in my mind"
first three questions depends on your friend's experience and preference as #5
4th question....i want to learn xxx or i want to improve myself gain working experience
what can i learn in this company
and so on
