W: Hi, John, it is good to see you.
M: Same here, Nancy. It has been a long time since I saw you last time.
W: Yes. How are you doing?
M: I am doing OK. It would be better if I have a new job right now. I already finished my studies and graduated last week. Now, I want to get a job in the finance field. Payroll is not exactly finance.
W: How long have you been looking for a new job?
M: I just started this week.
W: Didn’t you have any interviews with those firms that came to our campus last month?
M: I could only get one interview with Fidelity Company because of my heavy class schedule, but I guess I did not make it.
W: Don’t worry, John. You always did well in school. I know your good grades will help you get a job soon. Besides, the job market is pretty good right now, and all companies need financial analysts (分析).
M: I hope so.
W: You have prepared a resume, right?
M: Yes.
W: Did you mail your resume to a lot of companies?
M: Yes, I have sent it to a dozen companies already. I also do look closely at the employment ads listed in the newspaper every day.
W: Are there a lot of openings?
M: Quite a few. Some of them require a certain amount of experience and others are willing to train.
W: My friends told me that it helps to do some homework before you go to an interview. You need to know the company well—What kind of business is it in? What types of products does it sell? How is it doing lately?
M: Yes. I am ready for that.
W: Well, the companies might also ask you some questions about finance theories to Test your academic (学术的) understanding.
M: I can handle that.
W: They might tell you about a problem and want you to come up with a solution.
M: I don’t know about that. I hope I will be able to give them a decent response if the need arises.
W: They will want to know you a little bit before they make a hiring decision. For example, what are your strengths and your weaknesses? How do you get along with people?
M: I need to work on those questions.
W: Also, make sure you are on time. Nothing is worse than being late for an interview.
M: I know. I always plan to arrive about 10 or 15 minutes before the interview starts.
W: Good! It seems that you are well prepared for your job search. I am sure you will find a good job in no time.
M: I hope so.
