Conversation One
M: Next: Be prepared for a common approach known as behavioral-based interviewing.
W: And that is where past performance will indicate future performance. So good interviewers will ask you very detailed questions where they'll put you on the spot and they'll want to know specifically what role you played in a particular project. And so the key to giving a good answer is to do what I call a STAR, S-T-A-R. The S and the T stand for explaining a situation or a task that you were given, the A is the action you took and the R is the results.
M: So what you're saying is that you need to be prepared before you walk in the door.
W: Go through some mock interviews, if you can have friends ask you questions. Practice in the mirror, answering questions. You can bring out three or four things you really want to stress about yourself no matter what the question is asked.
M: How do you follow up after the interview?
W: Please send a thank-you letter. And you can do it by e-mail. And in that thank-you letter you do a couple of things. You make sure that you express sincere appreciation for the time that they spent interviewing you. You have an opportunity to re-emphasize some of your strongest qualities. You have another chance to make that case as to how your skills meet their needs. If there was something that you wish you had said a little more about, again an opportunity to do it here. Now that sounds like a lot to cover, but you do it very briefly, in a short couple of paragraphs and get it out right away.
1. What is the main purpose of this conversation?
2. What do we know about interviewing according to the speaker?
3. What does the woman suggest people do to prepare for the interview?
4. What can be stated in the thank-you letter after the interview?
对话一
男：接下来，你要为常见的行为面试做准备。
女：行为面试的依据是一个人过去的行为能预示他未来的行为。好的面试官会直接问你一些非常详细的问题，他们想确切地知道在某个项目中被面试者起了什么样的作用。因此做出好的回答的关键就是：
男：那么你的意思就是说去面试之前需要做好准备。
女：你可以做些模拟面试，请朋友问你问题。面对镜子练习回答。无论面试官提出什么问题，你都可以提及三到四点你想强调的自身特点。
男：面试之后要如何跟进呢？
女：发一封感谢信，可以通过邮件。你可以通过这封信完成几件事情。一定要对面试官抽时间给予面试表达真挚的感激之情。你也可以利用这次机会再次强调自己的优点并说明为什么你的能力就是他们所需要的。如果你还有什么想说没说的事情，这封感谢信就是契机。虽然提到了很多，但是信一定要简明，写几个简短的段落然后发送出去就可以了。
问题1 这段对话的目的是什么？
问题2 根据对话内容你对面试了解到了什么？
问题3 女士建议人们如何准备面试？
问题4 面试之后写感谢信时可以写什么内容？
