1
Hey Marcus, thanks for coming in. Grab a seat.
2
Thanks! This office is amazing, by the way.
3
We just moved in last month, so it's still a bit chaotic.
4
Okay, let's get started. Tell me about your current role.
5
I'm a back-end developer at a mid-sized online retailer.
6
I mainly build and maintain our payment systems.
7
So why are you thinking about leaving?
8
I feel like I've hit a ceiling there.
9
Most decisions are made by a team overseas.
10
I'd like to have more say in what we build.
11
That's definitely something you'd get here.
12
Walk me through a project you're really proud of.
13
Last year, our checkout kept crashing during big sales.
14
I was asked to find out what was causing it.
15
It turned out the database couldn't handle the traffic.
16
After we redesigned it, crashes dropped by about ninety percent.
17
Wow, that must have taken a lot of pressure off the team.
18
How do you handle disagreements about technical decisions?
19
I try not to take it personally.
20
I'll explain my reasoning, but I also listen carefully.
21
At the end of the day, the best idea should win.
22
I couldn't agree more.
23
What's something you're still working on?
24
I used to take on too much at once.
25
Now I'm much better at saying no, or not yet.
26
Honestly, that's a really valuable skill in a startup.
27
Can I ask how the team is structured?
28
Sure. There are six developers, and we work in small squads.
29
The next step would be a short coding task.
30
Sounds great. I'm looking forward to it.
31
Awesome. We'll be in touch in a few days.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
