毕业生求职(18)One

A: Hello!

B: Hello! Glad to meet you.

A: Tell me something about yourself, please.

B: My name is Wan Mei and I live in Guangzhou. I was born in 1978. I am a student of Jinan University. I have majored in Public Administration. I like travelling very much and enjoy sports. I am in the tennis club at my university.

A: Your application form says you were out of school for half a year during high school. What was the reason? Were you ill?

B: Oh, no. My father's job took him to America for six months then, and he decided to take the whole family along.

A: So during that time you went to high school in the United States?

B: Yes, it was just for a few months, but attended Johnson High School in Chicago.

A: There was a year between the time you graduated from high school and entered the university. What were you doing during that time?

B: I spent a year doing things a person doesn't have time for. I traveled several countries.

A: Do you think you are more outward-looking or more inward-looking?

B: Well, something I want to be by myself, but most of the time I prefer being with a group of people, so I guess you'd may I am rather outgoing. I was really very active in my university club.

A: What would you say are some of your strong and weak points?

B: Well, I suppose a strong point of mine is that I like developing new things and ideas. But I am afraid I am a poor talker and that isn't very good, so I've been studying how to speak in public.

A: Do you have any people you'd call really close friends?

B: Not too many, but not too few, either, I suppose. There are six people that I see quite often now. They're all my good friends.

A: What kind of sports do you like? And do you watch or play?

B: I like both watching and playing. And I enjoy almost all sports, but I especially like tennis. I was in the tennis club all through high school, so particularly in the case of tennis I prefer doing to watching.

A: What kind of books do you like?

B: I like biographics. It's intersting to read about the backgrounds of people who have become famous, and see what I can learn from their lives.

A: Who is your favorite writer?

B: I like the novels of Charles Dickens very much. I've read almost all of them in the original.

A: Can you name one person that you respect very much?

B: My English teacher at college. He has so much humour and vitality, and I am very impressed with his tactfulness. He can make a person see the contradictions in his thinking without making him feel foolish. I've learned a lot from watching the way he applies himself to his teaching, and how he leads people to seeing things.

A: What basic principles do you apply to your life?

B: Not to put off till tomorrow what you can do today. I feel that time gives away very easily --- you think you have it, and it is gone quickly! Putting things off just makes it worse later. So even if it is hard at the time, I try to get things done that day and not leave them till the next day.

A: Tell me why you are interested in working for this company, will you?

B: I think working in this company would give me the best oppotunity to use what I've learned at college, studying public administration for four years. I think this company has a great future and I'll be able to develop my own capabilities here. So for a long time I've been thinking I'd like to work with this company.

A: Have you ever worked during your university days?

B: Yes. I worked as a tutor to teach English to a middle school student.

A: There's a good chance for you to come to work for this company. But, you will have to have another interview with our manager himself in Chinese.

B: Of course.

A: Thank you for coming. Good-bye!

B: Good-bye!
