听力文本如下:

I worked for the college newspaper selling advertising space, and as an extrovert who likes interacting with people, I was very successful in the job.
What also helped me sell more than any other salesperson was my persistence.
I was willing to follow up with a potential client over weeks and even months, developing a relationship with them until they were ready to make a deal with us.
I'm currently working as a sales rep for the Michmuney Company.
I have been their top salesperson for the past two years.
Last year, I sold over $3 million worth of products.
Now, I'm ready for a new challenge.
I want to work in public relations because it is an area where I can use my creativity together with my knowledge of advertising and sales.
I have a proven ability to work well with people and I can develop good long-term relationships with clients.
I want to work for your company in particular because you work primarily with Internet-based companies, which is an area that is growing at the rate of 40% a year.
This makes your company a leader in the industry and I'd like to be part of that.
Like our first sample answer, the second sample answer follows the tips that we discussed at the beginning of this episode.
It focuses on work-related skills and accomplishments.
It tells the interviewer why the skills that this person has are important for the company.
It also talks about education and work history, and it gives personal characteristics that the person believes will help them in their job as well as specific examples of that in the jobs that they have held.
This sample answer begins by person saying that he has "worked successfully in sales for over 10 years.
One of my first sales jobs was in college, where I majored in business."
He doesn't say what college he came from, but he does say what he majored in, so the person knows he went to college and he majored in business.
Of course, that information will also be on your resume that you give the person that has a list of where you went to school-the college you went to school.
He said that he worked for a "college newspaper selling advertising space."
