W dzisiejszym artykule porozmawiamy o szukaniu pracy i przygotowaniu do rozmowy o pracę. Rozmowa o pracę jest jednym z najważniejszych etapów procesu rekrutacji, który może zadecydować o tym, czy zostaniemy zatrudnieni, czy też nie. Dlatego ważne jest, aby przygotować się do niej odpowiednio i zrobić dobre wrażenie na pracodawcy. Potrzebna do tego jest pewność siebie, której dodadzą Ci poniższe ćwiczenia i dialogi.

Steve: Hey, have you been looking for a new job lately?
Gina: Yeah, I have been searching for a spell now. I am feeling disheartened, though. I can’t seem to find anything that’s felicitous.
Steve: I know the feeling. What kind of jobs have you been looking at?
Gina: I’ve been trying to find something in marketing or advertising. I have some experience, nonetheless, it seems like every job posting has at least five plus years of experience. And to make things worse, the only positions I am eligible to apply for are odd jobs.
Steve: Yeah, that can be tough. Have you tried networking or reaching out to anyone in those industries?
Gina: I have, but I feel like I’m not making any progress. I’m starting to think that maybe I need to obtain another degree or get some more training to be competitive.
Steve: That could be a good idea. Have you looked into any programs or courses that could help you?
Gina: I have, but I’m hesitant to spend more money on education if it doesn’t guarantee a job.
Steve: I understand. Well, keep your head up. I’m sure the right opportunity will come along eventually. And in the meantime, maybe you could try expanding your search to related industries or positions.
Gina: Yeah, that’s a good point. Thanks for the suggestions. It’s great to have a supportive friend like you.
Steve: Of course, anytime.
