商務(wù)英語播客 第58課:面試第1份工作(Part 1)
This Business English Pod lesson is the first in a three-part series on first job interviews.
這節(jié)商務(wù)英語播客是3節(jié)系列課程的第1節(jié)，將涉及第1份工作面試。
Job interviews can make anyone nervous. After all, you want to make the best impression you can. But as a new graduate, you have an added challenge: little formal job experience. You need to prove to the employer that your studies and university experiencesrelate to the job you’re seeking.
面試會令人緊張。畢竟，你想給對方留下最好的印象。但是作為剛畢業(yè)的大學(xué)生，你有更多的挑戰(zhàn)：你只有很少的正式工作的經(jīng)驗。你需要向雇主證明你具有與工作相關(guān)的學(xué)習(xí)和大學(xué)經(jīng)歷。
Today, we’ll cover some ways to help you connect your college experiences to an employer’s job requirements. We’ll look at making introductions and explaining ground rules and interviewformat. We’ll also look at two types of common questions – “tell me about yourself?” and discussing your education.
今天，我們會學(xué)到一些用來將大學(xué)經(jīng)歷和雇主的工作要求聯(lián)系起來的方法。我們會介紹并解釋基本法則和面試形式。也會看下2種普通問題“介紹下你這節(jié)”并討論你所受的教育。
We’ll meet Owen, who just got his master’s in electrical engineering. He’s originally from Chengdu, China, a city 2,000 kilometers west of Shanghai. But he moved to Shanghai for graduate school and has decided to stay here for work. He’s interviewing for a test engineer position at IBH, an electronics company.
Owen剛剛獲得了電氣工程師的學(xué)位。他來自距上海2千公里的成都。但是他在上海上學(xué)并決定留在上海工作。他面試電子公司IBH的測試工程師職位。
Today’s meeting is a panel interview. This means a group of people will be asking the questions. So we’ll also meet Erica, who’s in charge of recruiting for IBH, and two of her colleagues: George, an engineering manager, and Cindy, a new HR manager.
今天的面試是小組面試。也就是說一組面試人員會問問題。面試人有IBH負責(zé)新人的Erica和她的兩個同事：工程經(jīng)理George，和新的人事經(jīng)理Cindy。
Listening Questions：
1. Why do you think George is handling the technical aspects of the interview?
2. What are two qualities or transferable skills that Owen mentions?
3. What does Owen say about his university’s approach to learning?
