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.

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。
