听力文本如下:

She goes on to say that she is "a very focused person" and tends to be "product-oriented."
These are two personal characteristics that she has that are related to the job.
Then, she's going to tell us how she used those personal characteristics or why those personal characteristics were important in the jobs that she's already done.
She's still talking about her one-year internship at Lotadoe Industries.
She says, "I'm a very focused person."
To be focused, "focused," means to have a very clear idea about what you are doing-to have very good concentration on whatever it is that you are doing.
That's a definite positivepersonal quality; "I'm very focused"-I can ignore everything around me and do my job effectively.
She also says that she's "product-oriented."
This is something that companies like from their employees.
What she means by "product-oriented" is that she is concerned about the results that she gets-she wants to make sure that she gets the job done, she's "product-oriented."
You could also say, "I am result-oriented"-I'm really trying to get the results that I'm supposed to get.
She continues that "At Lotadoe" Industries, she "made sure that whatever projects" she worked on, she "saw to completion."
To see something to completion means that you get the project finished-you get the project completed-you get it done.
Again, that's something that companies will want from you, that you can actually get things accomplished-get things completed.
Then, she gives a specific example.
She says, "For instance, I worked with a team that was developing a new version of a piece of popular software called Rototype.
I asked to be part of every step of software development and at the end of the project, I was given the responsibility of getting final technical approval" from the boss.
So, she not only says that she is "focused" and "product-oriented," she gives a specific example at her job of how she did this-an instance or an example.
"When I worked on this project, I was part of the entire project and I saw it to completion"-I was part of the team that finished the project.
