Interviewer(W)Mr. Smith(M)
Now, listen to Part One of the interview.
W: Good morning, Mr. Smith. Have a seat, please!
M: Thanks a lot.
W: OK, next let’s get down to the business. What is your major?
M: My major is business administration. I am especially interested in marketing.
W: Marketing? Nice! That perfectly suits our qualifications. Have you received any degrees?
M: Yes.(1-1/2-1)First, I received my bachelor’s degree in English literature, and then an MBA degree.
W: That sounds you did a good job in your university. Do you feel that you have received a good general training?
M: (1-2/2-2)Yes, I have studied in an English training program and a computer training program since I graduated from university. I am currently studying finance at a training school.
W: Your resume says that you have had one-year experience working in a foreign representative office in Shanghai, may I ask why you left?
M: (2 - 3)I worked in a foreign representative office for one year.(2 - 4/3) However, I left there two years ago because the work they gave me was rather dull. I found another job that is more interesting.
W: (4-1)You mean you couldn’t work to live, you enjoy whatever you do, right?
M: (4-2)Yes, I will love whatever I do.
W: But, does your present employer know you are looking for another job?
M: No, I haven’t discussed my career plans with my present employer, but I am sure he will understand.
W: If you believe you are a good fit for the position, please talk about what kind of personality you think you have.
M: (5 - 1)I always approach things very enthusiastically. When I begin something, I don’t like to leave it half-done. I can’t concentrate on something new until the first thing is finished.
W: And what are your personal weaknesses?
M: (5-2)I’m afraid I’m a poor talker. I’m not comfortable talking with the people whom I have just met for the first time. That is not very good for business, so I have been studying public speaking.
W: It is very difficult for somebody to see one’s own weakness. Are you more of a leader or a follower?
M: I don’t try to lead people.(5-3)I’d rather cooperate with everybody, and get the job done by working together.
