This is your Everyday English class.
2
Hello everyone.
3
Welcome to English Cactus.
4
My name is Brian.
5
And my name is Anna.
6
We're so happy you're here.
7
This podcast will help you practice your English in a fun and natural way while improving your listening skills.
8
Have you ever imagined yourself in a job interview and suddenly forgotten every English word you know?
9
Maybe you've studied English for months, but when you think about answering questions from an interviewer, you feel nervous and lose your confidence.
10
The truth is that many English learners believe they need perfect English before applying for a job.
11
But that's not true at all.
12
Most successful interviews don't happen because someone knows thousands of words.
13
They happen because the person can communicate clearly, stay calm, and use simple English with confidence.
14
And that's exactly what you're going to practice today.
15
In this episode, you'll listen to a realistic first job interview in English.
16
You'll learn useful expressions, practical vocabulary, and natural sentences that you can use in your own interviews.
17
Don't worry if you don't understand everything the first time.
18
That's completely normal.
19
After the dialogue, we'll come back and explain the most important expressions, vocabulary, and cultural tips step by step.
20
When you listen to the conversation again, you'll be surprised by how much more you understand.
21

And don't forget to leave a comment telling us where you're from.
24
We'd love to hear from you.
25
Now grab your coffee, relax, take a deep breath, and let's begin.
26
Good morning.
27
Welcome to Bright Market.
28
My name is Mr. Wilson.
29
It's nice to meet you.
30
Good morning, Mr. Wilson.
31
It's nice to meet you, too.
32
Thank you very much for giving me this opportunity.
33
You're welcome.
34
Please have a seat.
35
Thank you.
36
Are you comfortable?
37
Yes, thank you.
38
I'm a little nervous because this is my first job interview.
39
That's completely normal.
40
Don't worry.
41
Just relax.
42
We are going to have a friendly conversation.
43
Thank you.
44
That makes me feel much better.
45
Great.
46
Let's begin.
47
Could you please tell me a little about yourself? Of course.
48
My name is Emily Carter.
49
I'm 19 years old, and I recently finished high school.
50
I'm looking for my first job because I want to learn new skills, become more independent, and gain work experience.
51
I enjoy meeting new people, learning every day, and helping others.
52
In my free time, I like reading books, listening to podcasts in English, watching educational videos, and practicing my speaking.
53
That sounds very good.
54
I noticed you said you're looking for your first job.
55
Why did you choose our company?
56
I visited this store several times, and I always noticed that the employees were polite, organized, and friendly.
57
I think it's a great place to start my career.
58
I also believe I can learn a lot by working with experienced people.
59
That's a nice answer.
60
Thank you.
61
What do you know about our company?
62
I know that Bright Market is known for good customer service.
63
Many people recommend this place because the employees are respectful and helpful.
64
I read about the company before coming here because I wanted to be prepared for the interview.
65
Excellent.
66
Preparing before an interview is always a good idea.
67
Yes.
68
I believe preparation shows respect.
69
I agree.
70
Now I'd like to ask you something important.
71
Since this would be your first job, do you have any experience working with people?
72
Not in a company, but I do have some experience.
73
Last year, I volunteered at a community event every weekend.
74
I helped visitors find information, answered simple questions, organized materials, and worked with a team.
75
That's valuable experience.
76
Really?
77
Absolutely.
78
Many people think only paid jobs count as experience, but that's not true.
79
Volunteer work teaches responsibility, communication, teamwork, and problem solving.
80
I'm happy to hear that because I learned many things there.
81
Can you give me an example?
82
Sure.
83
One day, many visitors arrived at the same time, and everyone needed help.
84
Instead of feeling stressed, I stayed calm, listened carefully, and helped one person at a time.
85
When I didn't know an answer, I asked another volunteer instead of guessing.
86
That's exactly the right attitude.
87
Thank you.
88
Nobody is perfect, but everyone can improve.
89
I couldn't agree more.
90
My English teacher always tells us every mistake is a lesson.
91
That's excellent advice.
92
Yes, I believe it's true not only for English, but also for work and life.
93
Keep that mindset.
94
It will help you a lot.
95
I will.
96
Let's talk about teamwork.
97
Do you enjoy working with other people?
98
Yes, I do.
99
I like sharing ideas and learning from others.
100
I also respect different opinions.
101
Sometimes another person has a better idea than mine, and that's okay, because the goal is to work together.
102
Very good.
103
Can you tell me about a time when you worked as part of a team?
104
Certainly.
105
During my last year of high school, my class organized a charity event.
106
We sold homemade food to raise money for a local children's hospital.
107
What was your role?
108
I helped organize the schedule, welcomed customers, answered questions, and worked at the cashier for part of the event.
109
Were there any problems?
110
Yes.
111
At one point, we were very busy and the line became long.
112
Some customers looked impatient.
113
What happened then?
114
We quickly divided the tasks.
115
One student welcomed customers, another accepted payments,
116
another prepared the orders, and I answered questions while keeping everyone informed about the waiting time.
117
That's a smart solution.
118
Thank you.
119
We learned that good communication makes everything easier.
120
Exactly.
121
At the end of the event, everyone was tired, but we were happy because we raised enough money to help the hospital.
122
That's wonderful.
123
It was one of the best experiences I've ever had.
124
I can see that you enjoy helping people.
125
Yes, I really do.
126
Customer service is an important part of this job.
127
Imagine a customer comes into the store looking confused.
128
What would you say?
129
I would smile and say, Good afternoon.
130
Can I help you find something today?
131
Very nice.
132
If they needed help, I would listen carefully before giving directions or suggestions.
133
And what if you didn't know the answer?
134
I would never guess.
135
I would say, I'm sorry, let me ask my manager so I can give you the correct information.
136
That's the best approach.
137
I think customers appreciate honesty.
138
They certainly do.
139
I also believe people remember how they are treated.
140
That's true.
141
Excellent customer service is not only about solving problems, it's also about making people feel welcome.
142
Exactly.
143
Even a simple smile can make someone's day better.
144
I like that answer very much.
145
Thank you.
146
Let's talk about your strengths.
147
What would you say are your biggest strengths?
148
I think I'm responsible, patient, organized, and willing to learn.
149
I enjoy improving little by little every day.
150
That's important because nobody knows everything the first day.
151
Yes.
152
I'm always ready to ask questions when I need help.
153
Some people are afraid to ask questions.
154
I used to be, but then I realized that asking questions helps me learn faster.
155
Exactly.
156
A person who asks questions usually grows faster than someone who pretends to know everything.
157
I completely agree.
158
That's a great attitude to have, especially in your first job.
159
Thank you for this opportunity.
160
You are very welcome.
161
Have a wonderful day.
162
You too.
163
Goodbye.
164
Goodbye, Emily.
165
Good luck.
166
Thank you.
167
I'll do my best wherever I go, and I'll never stop learning.
168
That was a really nice conversation.
169
I think a lot of our listeners can relate to Emily because many people feel nervous before their first job interview.
170
Absolutely, and that's completely normal.
171
If you're preparing for your first interview, don't worry.
172
By the end of this lesson, you'll understand the most useful expressions from the dialogue.
173
Before we begin, we'd like to say thank you for being here with us.
174
We work hard to create free English lessons every week.
175
If you'd like to support our work, you can buy us a coffee.
176
Any amount is welcome, and you'll find the link in the description below.
177
Thank you so much for helping us continue creating free content for English learners around the world.
178
Alright, let's look at the first important sentence.
179
Emily said, Thank you very much for giving me this opportunity.
180
I really like this sentence because it's simple, polite, and professional.
181
If you're in a job interview, saying thank you is already polite, but adding, For giving me this opportunity, makes your answer much warmer.
182
Exactly.
183
You're showing appreciation for the interviewer's time.
184
First impressions matter a lot during a job interview.
185
You could also say, thank you for inviting me today, or I really appreciate your time.
186
They all sound natural.
187
The important thing is not to memorize dozens of different expressions.
188
Learn one or two that feel comfortable, practice them several times, and they'll come naturally during the interview.
189
That's right.
190
Simple English spoken confidently is much better than difficult English that makes you nervous.
191
Now let's continue.
192
Mr. Wilson asked, could you please tell me a little about yourself?
193
This is probably the most common question in any job interview.
194
And many students think they need to tell their whole life story.
195
But that's not what the interviewer wants.
196
Exactly.
197
They just want to know who you are, what you've studied, what kind of person you are, and why you're interested in the job.
198
A simple answer works really well.
199
For example, I'm a responsible person.
200
I recently finished high school, and I'm excited to start my first job.
201
See?
202
That's enough.
203
Short, natural, and easy to understand.
204
Remember, confidence doesn't come from using difficult words.
205
It comes from practicing simple sentences until they feel natural.
206
A little later, Mr. Wilson said something very important.
207
He said, preparing before an interview is always a good idea.
208
I couldn't agree more.
209
Preparation changes everything.
210
Think about it.
211
Imagine two candidates.
212
One candidate studies the company, practices interview questions, learns useful vocabulary, and arrives early.
213
The other candidate wakes up late, doesn't know anything about the company, and hopes everything will be fine.
214
Which candidate will probably feel more confident?
215
Definitely the first one.
216
The same happens when you're learning English.
217
Study a little every day.
218
Learn five new words today.
219
Review yesterday's vocabulary tomorrow.
220
Listen to short podcasts.
221
Read simple stories.
222
Practice speaking out loud.
223
Little by little, you'll notice a huge improvement.
224
Then Emily said something that every student should remember.
225
She said, first, I admit the mistake.
226
Then I ask how I can fix it.
227
Finally, I learn from it so I don't repeat it.
228
I absolutely love this answer.
229
Me too.
230
Because nobody's perfect.
231
Exactly.
232
Finally, Mr. Wilson gave Emily some wonderful advice.
233
He said, keep going.
234
Such a short sentence.
235
But such a powerful message.
236
Native speakers use this expression all the time.
237
Teachers say it to students.
238
Parents say it to their children.
239
Coaches say it to athletes.
240
Friends say it to each other.
241
It simply means, don't stop.
242
Continue.
243
Believe in yourself.
244
Now that we've talked about the main sentences from the dialogue, let's look at some very important vocabulary.
245
These are words that you'll hear in many job interviews, not only for your first job, but for many other interviews in the future.
246
Our first word is interview.
247
This is probably the most important word in today's lesson.
248
An interview is the conversation you have with a company before getting a job.
249
Exactly.
250
The company wants to know more about you, your personality, your skills, and your experience.
251
Let's look at a simple example.
252
I have a job interview tomorrow morning.
253
Here's another one.
254
She prepared for her interview all week.
255
Notice that we often use the verb have with interview.
256
That's right.
257
We say, I have an interview.
258
Not only that, but you can also say, the interview went well.
259
Or I'm preparing for my first interview.
260
If you're learning English, try making your own sentence using the word interview.
261
the podcast if you need a few seconds.
262
Great, let's continue.
263
Our second word is experience.
264
This word is extremely common during interviews.
265
Many students think experience only means having worked before, but that's not true.
266
Experience can come from volunteer work, school projects, helping your family, taking care of children, organizing events,
267
even learning a new skill consistently gives you valuable experience.
268
Listen to this example.
269
I don't have work experience yet, but I'm willing to learn.
270
That's a fantastic answer for someone applying for a first job.
271
Here's another one.
272
Every experience teaches us something new.
273
I really like that sentence.
274
Me too.
275
Because it's true, both in English and in life.
276
Our next word is skills.
277
Skills are the things you're able to do well.
278
For example, maybe you're organized.
279
Maybe you're good at solving problems.
280
Maybe you're patient.
281
Or maybe you're a great communicator.
282
Those are all skills.
283
Let's hear some examples.
284
I'm improving my communication skills.
285
Learning English is an important skill.
286
Teamwork is one of my strongest skills.
287
We also hear the expression soft skills quite often.
288
Those are personal qualities like communication, teamwork, patience, responsibility, and kindness.
289
And companies love those skills.
290
Our fourth word is responsible.
291
I love this adjective.
292
Me too.
293
Because almost every company wants responsible employees.
294
A responsible person arrives on time, finishes their work, keeps their promises, and admits mistakes when necessary.
295
Listen to this sentence.
296
I'm a responsible and organized person.
297
That's a wonderful sentence to use during an interview.
298
Here's another one.
299
She's very responsible, so everyone trusts her.
300
The opposite of responsible is irresponsible.
301
And that's definitely not a word you want people using to describe you.
302
Definitely not.
303
Our next word is confidence.
304
This is one of my favorite words.
305
Mine too.
306
Because many students think confidence appears magically.
307
But confidence comes from practice.
308
The more you practice, the more comfortable you become.
309
Listen to this example.
310
Speaking every day helped me build confidence.
311
she answered every question with confidence.
312
Notice something interesting.
313
You don't need to know thousands of words to sound confident.
314
You just need to know your words well.
315
That's a huge difference.
316
Our sixth word is opportunity.
317
We heard this word right at the beginning of the dialogue.
318
Emily said, thank you very much for giving me this opportunity.
319
Opportunity means a chance to do something.
320
A chance to learn.
321
A chance to improve.
322
A chance to grow.
323
Let's hear another example.
324
This job is a great opportunity.
325
Or, learning English opens many opportunities.
326
I completely agree with that.
327
Every new word you learn creates another opportunity for your future.
328
Our final word today is teamwork.
329
Teamwork means people working together towards the same goal.
330
Even if you're very talented, it's difficult to do everything alone.
331
That's why teamwork is so valuable.
332
Listen to this example.
333
Good teamwork makes difficult tasks easier.
334
Or, I enjoy working as part of a team.
335
Companies ask about teamwork all the time because almost every job involves other people.
336
Exactly.
337
And remember, Good teamwork starts with listening, respecting different opinions, helping each other, and communicating clearly.
338
Those were seven essential words that every English learner should know before attending a job interview.
339
Don't try to memorize all of them today.
340
Instead, choose one or two words.
341
Make your own sentences.
342
Say them out loud.
343
Repeat them tomorrow.
344
Then use them again next week.
345
That's how vocabulary moves from your notebook into your real conversations.
346
Keep studying.
347
Keep practicing.
348
And don't be afraid to make mistakes.
349
Every mistake is another step towards fluency.
350
And that's the end of today's lesson.
351
Let's take a quick look at everything we've learned together.
352
Today, you listened to a realistic first job interview in English.
353
You learned useful expressions that you can use in a real interview.
354
We talked about important vocabulary like interview, experience, skills, confidence, opportunity, and teamwork.
355
We also explained cultural tips that can help you feel more prepared when talking to an interviewer in English.
356
Remember, your first interview doesn't have to be perfect.
357
Every interview is a learning experience.
358
Every answer you practice makes you a little more confident.
359
Every new word you learn gives you another tool to communicate.
360
So don't wait until you think your English is perfect.
361
Because one day, you'll look back and realize that all those small daily practice sessions made a huge difference.
362
Now, we'd love to hear from you.
363
Have you ever had a job interview?
364
Was it your first interview?
365
Which expression from today's lesson was your favorite?
366
And what other real-life situations would you like us to create podcasts about?
367
Tell us in the comments.
368
We read them, and your suggestions help us create future episodes.
369
If today's lesson helped you, don't forget to subscribe to the channel.
370
Give this video a like and share it with a friend who's learning English, too.
371
The more you practice, the more natural English will become.
372
Even 15 or 20 minutes of practice every day can make a big difference over time.
373
We'll see you in the next episode of English Cactus.
374
Bye everyone!
375
See you next time!

이 비디오로 말하기 연습하는 이유

취업 면접은 영어 학습자에게 가장 긴장되는 상황 중 하나입니다. 이 비디오는 첫 직장 면접을 실제로 경험하는 것처럼 자연스러운 대화를 제공해줍니다. 유튜브 영어 공부를 할 때 이런 실제적인 맥락에서 연습하면, 단순히 단어를 외우는 것 이상으로 실전에서 쓸 수 있는 표현을 익힐 수 있습니다. 특히 쉐도잉(shadow speech) 연습에 좋은데, 대화를 따라 말하면서 발음, 억양, 속도를 자연스럽게 익힐 수 있거든요. 면접에서 필요한 신뢰감 있는 의사소통을 연습하고, 긴장을 극복하는 방법도 배울 수 있어요.

맥락 속 문법과 표현

대화에서 자주 사용되는 핵심 표현을 분석해보세요.

  • "Could you please tell me a little about yourself?" - 면접에서 가장 흔한 질문입니다. "Could you please~"는 부드럽게 요청할 때 사용하는 표현으로, 상대방을 존중하면서 질문을 던지는 방법입니다.
  • "I'm looking for my first job because I want to learn new skills..." - "because"를 사용해 이유를 설명할 때, 목적을 분명히 밝히는 표현입니다. 면접에서 자신의 동기를 명확하게 전달할 때 유용해요.
  • "That makes me feel much better." - 상대방의 말에 대한 반응을 자연스럽게 표현하는 문장입니다. "make + 사람 + feel + 형용사" 구조는 감정을 표현할 때 자주 사용되며, 대화를 더 친밀하게 만듭니다.

발음의 함정 주의하기

영어 발음에서 주의해야 할 부분을 알아봅시다.

  • "opportunity" - 이 단어는 "옵포츄니티"가 아니라 "아퍼튜니티"로 발음해야 합니다. 중간의 "t"가 "ch" 소리가 되는 것을 주의하세요.
  • "comfortable" - "컴퍼터블"이 아니라 "컴퍼터블"로 발음하되, 마지막 "able"은 "블"이 아니라 "블"로 부드럽게 발음합니다. 너무 강하게 발음하면 자연스럽지 않아요.
  • 억양 - 면접에서 긴장하면 억양이 평평해질 수 있습니다. 대화에서 "Thank you very much for giving me this opportunity."와 같이 감사의 뜻을 강조할 때는 "very much"를 높은 톤으로 발음해 신뢰감을 주세요.

이 비디오를 사용해 쉐도잉(shadow speech) 연습을 하세요. 대화를 따라 말하면서 발음과 억양, 속도를 맞추면, 실제 면접에서도 자연스러운 영어를 사용할 수 있을 거예요. 유튜브 영어 공부의 핵심은 지속적인 연습이니, 매일 10분씩 쉐도잉을 해보세요! 여러분도 면접에서 자신감 있게 말할 수 있을 거예요.

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.
