BEP 167 – Interviewing for your First Job 1

 
Learn language for getting started and answering common questions in an interview.

Lesson Objectives

  • Making introductions.
  • Explaining ground rules.
  • Responding to the question “tell us about yourself”.
  • Discussing your education background.

We’ll meet Owen, who just got his master’s in electrical engineering. He’s originally from Chengdu, China, a city 2,000 kilometers west of Shanghai. But he moved to Shanghai for graduate school and has decided to stay here for work. He’s interviewing for a test engineer position at IBH, an electronics company.

Today’s meeting is a panel interview. This means a group of people will be asking the questions. So we’ll also meet Erica, who’s in charge of recruiting for IBH, and two of her colleagues: George, an engineering manager, and Cindy, a new HR manager.
