Welcome back to Business English Pod for today’s lesson on talking about your goals and expectations in a job interview.
In un colloquio di lavoro in inglese, you’ll surely have to answer questions about your experience and your background. And you’ll be trying to convince the interviewers that you’re the person they are looking for. But what are you looking for? And how does the job you’re applying for fit into your plans?
Your goals and expectations matter. Interviewers want to know that you’re the right fit for each other. So you should be prepared to talk about your plans and what you’re looking for. You should also be ready to talk about the industry, and about the company you’re hoping to work for.
Today we’ll learn some of the techniques and language you can use to talk about your goals and expectations in an Colloquio di lavoro in inglese. We’ll look at how to answer a question about career goals, and to answer a negative question. We’ll also cover how to show knowledge about the industry and ask good questions about the company. E infine, we’ll look at how to give salary expectations and talk about your intangible priorities, which means what you’re looking for besides money and benefits.
Nella finestra di dialogo, ci riuniremo a Ryan, who’s interviewing for a job at a software company. He’s being interviewed by Sandra and Victor, who want to know about Ryan’s goals and expectations.
