正在创建课程...
1
I'm committed to working at a mission-driven organization like this one.
2
I'm passionate about marketing.
3
I haven't had any professional experience, though, which I hope is okay.
4
Let's get one thing straight.
5
As a recent grad myself, your interviewer is not expecting you to have a wealth of professional experience.
6
But they are looking for you to have certain qualities that make you right for the job.
7
Chances are you have those qualities.
8
You learn them in school, on sports teams, and extracurricular activities.
9
Interviewing for an entry-level job requires drawing from those experiences.
10
We're going to watch a few different entry-level job interviews in action, and I'm going to pop in throughout to give feedback on how things are going.
11
Let's get into it.
12
So tell me, what makes you interested in this industry?
13
Well, I've always wanted to be a product designer since I was a little girl.
14
I, of course, didn't know what the job of a product designer was then, but I was fascinated by people like Steve Jobs and knew I wanted to make products that changed the world.
15
I didn't focus on this so much in college.
16
My priority was kind of having a college experience, and I'm so lucky I got to do that.
17
But now it's time to start adulting.
18
And I really think this is the perfect place for me to grow my career.
19
I know that if someone took a chance on me, I would succeed.
20
Let's talk about what's working here.
21
First of all, the candidate comes across as confident and someone who has genuine interest in the position.
22
But she needs to be more specific.
23
Her points about prioritizing a college experience could raise some flags.
24
If she didn't study design in college, where has she learned it?
25
And how does she know she'll be successful in the role?
26
She should be explicit.
27
Hiring managers want you to be concise and specific when talking about yourself.
28
And let's see her redo that last part.
29
While I didn't study product design in college, I am familiar with the relevant design tools used in this role.
30
And I've taken online courses to learn more.
31
I'm really excited about this opportunity.
32
I'm a self-starter.
33
And when I don't know the answer, I'm not afraid to ask.
34
Hmm, much better.
35
Now let's see how another applicant responds to a similar question.
36
How has your experience prepared you for this role?
37
I'm committed to working at a mission-driven organization like this one.
38
I'm passionate about marketing.
39
I haven't had any professional experience though, which I hope is okay.
40
Jumping in real quick to say yes, it's okay if you don't have professional experience in the area you're applying for.
41
You do have other relevant experiences and transferable skills that you can communicate during an interview.
42
With that in mind, let's see this candidate kick off his answer a little differently.
43
Are you using the Indeed mobile app?
44
The app is free and makes it easy to apply right from your phone.
45
Click the link below or just search Indeed in the App Store.
46
Well, first of all, I am committed to working at a mission-driven organization like this one.
47
I'm passionate about marketing.
48
My undergrad coursework focused on understanding digital culture and the importance of representation in advertising.
49
And I'm eager to apply what I've learned to a professional setting.
50
Also, your company values really resonate with me.
51
They make you stand out from some of the other organizations I was considering.
52
I was listening to a recent speech the CEO gave,
53
and when she was talking about how we need to innovate faster and disrupt our own industry before others disrupt us,
54
I thought to myself, this is a place I would be lucky to contribute too.
55
Hmm.
56
Yes!
57
There's a ton of good stuff in this response.
58
First, referring to your academics is a great thing to do
59
when you don't have professional experience in the area you're applying for.
60
I also love that this candidate referenced his value alignment with the company.
61
But what I really found impressive was how he read up on the CEO prior to the interview.
62
He did his homework.
63
It's a small detail that really goes the extra mile and differentiates you from other candidates.
64
What was your biggest obstacle in college and how did you overcome it?
65
I'm a computer science major and prior to college I had absolutely zero STEM experience.
66
So when I was first learning to code Java, let's just say it was bumpy.
67
Things just weren't clicking for me and I knew I needed to make a change.
68
So I started a support group with some other students.
69
I put in hours of extra work and practice time on my own.
70
And I'm proud to say, after a lot of hard work, not only did I become proficient in Java and Python,
71
but I also was able to tutor some first year students.
72
I know that my career will be full of learning opportunities like this
73
and I'm eager to face them head on and continue to improve.
74
Wow.
75
This answer checked so many boxes.
76
She was confident, concise, and kept the answer professional you definitely don't want to talk about personal challenges in school.
77
She showed that she has the skills to identify problems and create solutions, not to mention a willingness to pay it forward.
78
If she has time to tutor and continue to do well in her classes, she must have some strong time management skills too.
79
Well done.
80
And now here's a question that pretty much everyone is bound to hear at one point or another.
81
So that's all I have.
82
I'm asking you all the questions.
83
So I really want to thank you for taking out the time to come in and see us today.
84
You're very well versed.
85
And before we wrap, do you have any questions for me?
86
Um, yeah.
87
Uh, what made you decide to go into sales?
88
Hope the interview isn't over.
89
This is an essential moment.
90
The hiring manager wants to see if you're a critical thinker and if you're curious about the organization.
91
asking, what made you go into sales?
92
Helps build a relationship, but doesn't give you insight into the company.
93
Here are some good questions to ask.
94
What's your favorite thing about working here?
95
What are some of the qualities that would make an entry-level candidate most successful in this role?
96
What advice would you give your younger self starting out in this industry?
97
We've covered a lot here that will help you ace your first interview.
98
Everyone starts with an entry-level job.
99
We've all been there, including myself.
100
The fact of the matter is that you have more relevant experience than you think, and the tools to tell a story that proves it.

你能学到什么
这段视频能帮你掌握3个关键口语技巧：首先是如何将校园经历转化为求职优势，即使没有专业经验，也能通过课程、社团等经历提炼可迁移技能；其次是回答问题时的具体性，避免模糊表述，比如用“学过设计工具、上过在线课程”代替“我能成功”；最后是如何自然融入公司价值观，像视频中候选人提到“公司价值观与我共鸣”，能快速拉近与面试官的距离。这些技巧不仅适用于求职面试，也是雅思口语练习中展现逻辑思维的核心方法。
注意这些连读与弱读
视频对话中存在典型的连读和弱读现象，比如“kinds of”连读为/kaɪndzəv/，“didn't know”弱读为/ˈdɪdənt noʊ/，“want to”连读为/ˈwɑːntə/。这些发音特点是提高英语发音的关键。另外，“I'm committed to”中的“to”弱读为/tə/，“passionate about”中的“about”弱读为/əˈbaʊt/。通过模仿这些连读和弱读，能让你的口语更接近母语者水平，也是看YouTube学英语时需要重点关注的细节。
像母语者一样表达
要模仿视频中说话者的节奏和重音，需注意以下几点：首先，重音落在关键词上，比如“genuine interest”“relevant experiences”“company values”，这些词要重读以突出重点；其次，节奏快慢结合，在讲述经历时放慢速度，在表达决心时适当加快，比如“我是个自我驱动者，不懂就问”可以说得更紧凑；最后，使用自然的语调，避免生硬的升调或降调，像“我真的很兴奋能有这个机会”这句话，结尾用轻微升调能体现热情。通过英语口语练习中的“shadowspeak”（影子跟读）法，反复模仿这些细节，你的口语会更流畅自然。
视频中的语法
说话人最常用的结构，并附上视频中的原话：
| 结构 | 视频中的用法 |
|---|---|
| 现在完成时 have/has + 过去分词 — 过去发生但与现在仍有关联的事 | haven't had · I've always wanted · has she learned |
| 被动语态 be + 过去分词 — 强调发生了什么，而不是谁做的 | was fascinated · is bound |
什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
