Hi there.
6
Can I help you with anything?
7
Oh, hi.
8
I'm interested in the possibility of a career with TGS when I graduate,
9
so I thought I'd come here and see if there are any opportunities suitable for people like me.
10
OK.
11
I'll take a few details from you, and then we can contact you when we start our recruitment program.
12
Oh, great.
13
So, if you were to work with us, what area would you want to focus on?
14
I'm hoping to make a career in the field of marketing.
15
I'm quite an outgoing person.
16
OK, I'll just feed that into the computer.
17
And what's your name?
18
It's Dominika Alexandrovna.
19
OK, can you just spell your surname for me?
20
Sure.
21
It's A-L-E-X-A-N-D-R-O-V-N-A.
22
Thanks.
23
It's important to spell names correctly in business.
24
Yeah.
25
And where are you from, Dominika?
26
Well, I was born in Poland, actually, and my mum's Polish, but I'm Russian, because we moved to Moscow when I was very small for my father's job.
27
Well, I must say your English is very good.
28
Thanks.
29
I've been here a couple of years now.
30
OK, Well, we usually get in touch with students a bit later on, and the easiest way for us to communicate with you is by email.
31
Oh, yes.
32
I can give you my email address.
33
Fine.
34
Then we can send you any links that you need to read and attach the application forms.
35
Oh, great.
36
Well, my email address is dom dom54 at qmail.com.
37
Right.
38
Thanks.
39
As you know, we like to encourage young people to start working for us as soon as they graduate.
40
Uh-huh.
41
Obviously, our interest is related to the class of degree that you get.
42
Well, I'm hoping to get a 2-1.
43
My tutors are all pretty confident that I will.
44
That's good.
45
So which university are you studying at?
46
I'm just finishing my course at London University.
47
And I assume you're in the School of Business?
48
Yes, I've been doing a BA.
49
And is that part-time?
50
No, I'm a full-time student.
51
I haven't actually had any experience of business yet.
52
I want to concentrate on getting my qualifications first.
53
Okay.
54
How have you found the course?
55
Oh, it's been really good.
56
I've really improved my communication skills, and I've learned how to work in a team as well.
57
Well, that's good if you want to work in a global company.
58
So, when do you finish?
59
Um, well, it's a 22-month course, and I finish in two weeks' time.
60
I see.
61
So, when would you be available for an interview? you?
62
Well, I think the 21st of July.
63
I'm taking a holiday on the 12th of July for a week, and I'd need a couple of days to sort myself out after that.
64
We're obviously interested in your business qualifications, but it also helps if you've done anything in your spare time that shows you have some business-related skills.
65
Um, well, I did run a competition last year for the charity Save the Children.
66
That's just the sort of thing I mean.
67
Shows you have some management skills.
68
Right, and apart from work and study, what do you like to do in your free time?
69
I'm quite good at cooking.
70
I make sure I eat well.
71
You know, when you're a student, it's easy to forget to eat or to eat a lot of junk food.
72
I do things like watch some of the cookery programs on TV, and then I copy them.
73
Great!
74
I'm not very sporty, but I do go swimming at least twice a week.
75
I like to keep in shape.
76
Have you done any other work in the past that would be relevant to a marketing career?
77
Um, I did help my father with his business, but it wasn't really a job.
78
I didn't get paid.
79
But I have been a children's tutor.
80
I got that job through the people at my homestay.
81
That's good.
82
So if you worked for us, how would you see your career developing?
83
What do you mean?
84
Well, are you ambitious?
85
Do you want to get to the top?
86
I guess I'd like to get into management.
87
You know, I'd like to work my way up the ladder and end up as a project manager.
88
Well, that's about all I need to ask you for now.
89
I'll let you walk around and look at some of our displays.
90
Thanks.
91
Can I just ask how you first heard about the fair?
92
Oh, from a friend.
93
She told me about it last week and then I looked it up on the internet.
94
OK.
95
Thanks.
96
Thank you.
97
Thank you.
98
Thank you.

Informazioni su questa lezione

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
