2011年商务英语中级口语辅导：我们只招兼职

    A： Thanks for coming in on such short notice. Did you find our studio okay？

    B：Oh， yes， it was very easy to find with the directions you gave me. A： Good. Well， let's get right into your interview. We're looking for someone who will be able to work on a part-time basis only. B： That's no problem. I can work either part-time or full-time， but I actually prefer something part-time. A： Tell me a litter bit about your qualifications. We've already had over fifty applicants for this position. What sets you apart from all the other candidates？

    B： I think something I can offer that is different from everyone else is that I can speak several languages fluently. I have experience in intercultural communication， and I can help your station to reach a wider audience. A： Have you ever worked in broadcasting before ？

    B： I have done some work in print media， but this will be the first time to do broadcast media. Even though it is new for me， I learn really quickly. I have confidence I can get the hang of things in no time at all. A： Would you mind giving us a demo right now？

    B： No problem！ I'd be happy to.谢谢你能这么快赶过来。我们的演播室好找吗？

    噢，好找。按你们提供的路线很容易就找到了。

    很好。那我们直接进入面试。原则上，我们只能招做兼职的人。

    那不是问题。我专职，兼职都可以，实际上更喜欢做兼职。

    说一下你的应聘条件。我们这个职位已经有50多个应聘者了。你和其他应聘者有什么不同之处？

    我认为我与其他人不同的是，我能流利地讲好几种语言，在跨文化交流方面我也有经验，能帮助贵台争取更多的听众。

    你以前做过广播这一行吗？

    我做过报刊新闻方面的工作，但做广播这一行还是第一次，即使我对这工作不熟悉，我也很快就能学会，我自信自己很快就能掌握这一切。

    现在你能给我们试播一下吗？

    没问题！非常荣幸。
