1
The 21st century workplace is constantly changing.
2
In many countries, the idea of a career for life is long gone.
3
What employers want are skills that can be applied to a range of tasks and roles.
4
As a result, they look for flexible people who can demonstrate transferable professional skills
5
as well as personal qualities that will benefit the company.
6
Here's an insider's guide to the skills and qualities
7
that will get you hired and also help you survive in today's job market.
8
A large part of the academic experience is based around individual performance.
9
In business, however, things are quite different.
10
You need to develop a range of transferable skills.
11
And one thing that many recruiters put at the top of their list is the ability to work in teams.
12
I would look at can this candidate fit into the team well?
13
Do they work well with people?
14
Are they passionate about the topic?
15
Do they think outside of the box?
16
The employers value team working skills very highly indeed.
17
So if you're studying, it's really important you try and get some experience.
18
Now, obviously an internship is an ideal way to do this,
19
but you can also do it through part-time jobs,
20
through vacation work, through voluntary work,
21
or helping with societies and clubs while you're at university.
22
Your experience at school is really, really important.
23
So if you played in a team, guess what?
24
You're a team player.
25
You set goals, you can achieve.
26
21st century careers involve a lot of movement,
27
not just between jobs, but also between industries and countries.
28
It's no good if your skill set locks you into one industry or even into one company.
29
And this is where flexibility is important.
30
Be prepared to develop attributes that are transferable across sectors so you can make the best moves for your career.
31
I'm talking about things like critical thinking,
32
which means analysing information very carefully,
33
communication skills, problem solving, being able to influence people.
34
Make sure you work on your communication skills,
35
in person, on paper, face-to-face,
36
in small groups, in large groups.
37
You'll need to do this wherever you work,
38
whatever job it is, across all sectors,
39
communication skills are absolutely key.
40
Employers are not just hiring a package of skills,
41
they're hiring a person and it's personal qualities that are of key importance.
42
Honesty, flexibility, enthusiasm.
43
These things matter a lot. Be passionate.
44
If you're really going to apply to a company that you're interested in,
45
make sure your passion comes through and be genuine and authentic about that passion.
46
You're going to work hard,
47
you're going to play hard,
48
but you have to be passionate to be successful.
49
It's their own determination that's going to get them a job.
50
Right?
51
Employers, you know, are going to look at them,
52
not necessarily for their skills that they may have but for the passion that they may,
53
you know, express.
54
Convince them that you have integrity,
55
you know, integrity is is very important obviously and convince them
56
that you have ability that you will do everything you can to make that job work.
57
If you are motivated and have a can-do attitude you will get wherever you want.
58
So to sum up our Insider's Guide you need professional skills that can transfer from one job to another,
59
especially the ability to be a good team player.
60
Don't forget that employers look at the person behind the CV
61
or resume to identify the personal qualities they value in the workplace.

なぜこの動画でスピーキングを練習するべきか？
この動画は、21世紀の職場環境とそこに求められるスキルについて解説しています。YouTubeで英語学習の一環として、実際のビジネスシーンでの対話を通じて、英語のスピーキングスキルを向上させる絶好の機会です。動画内の内容は、柔軟性やチームワーク、コミュニケーション能力など、現代の職場で必須とされる能力について述べられており、実際の会話で登場する仕組みを学ぶことができます。声に出して練習することで、より自信を持って会話に臨むことができ、shadowspeakやshadowspeaksの手法を使用することで、効果的に表現力を高めることができます。
文法と表現の文脈
動画ではいくつかの重要な構造や表現が紹介されています。以下にいくつかの例を挙げます：
- “Employers want skills that can be applied to a range of tasks and roles.” - ここでは、特定のスキルが多様なタスクや役割に応用できることが強調されています。
- “You need to develop a range of transferable skills.” - 移転可能なスキルの開発が重要であることを示しています。
- “Are they passionate about the topic?” -候補者の情熱が重視されることを示す質問形です。
- “Be prepared to develop attributes that are transferable across sectors.” - 業界を超えるスキルの開発が必要であることが指摘されています。
これらの表現を参考に、IELTS スピーキング対策としても活用できます。
一般的な発音の落とし穴
動画内で使用されているいくつかの単語やフレーズには発音の難しさがあります。特に注意すべきポイントは以下の通りです：
- “flexibility” - 音節の強弱に注意しましょう。
- “attributes” - “a”の発音が誤りやすいです。
- “passionate” - “pass-”と“-ionate”の間のつながりを滑らかに発音することが重要です。
これらの発音を意識し、shadowing siteで反復練習することで、クリアな発音を身につけることができます。
シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
