Outsideview :How to get a job
Graduati on. What a big day!Your life is about to begi n!And the n your pare nts say..."Get a job".l tell you!Looking for your first job out of college can be pretty hard.Reading all the job listing is so annoying.Even trying to figure out what the actual job is can be difficult.Searching through the want ads can be so boring.And writing your resume is really hard work.
"I don't have that day ope n."Gett ing a job in terview,a nd the n going on it —the whole process is pretty tough.
"Sorry to keep you wait in g.Uh,have a seat.""l have your resume here,a nd you are in terested in the assista nt's positi on."
"Yeah,yeah"
"Well,the right can didate for this job has to be very outgo ing and sociable.After all it is a sale positi on."
"Well, l'm a real extrovert(性格外向的人).Definitely."
"A nd the right can didate has to have great self-c on fide nce.Customers n eed to feel that you know what you're talk ing about."
"Well, rm really self-c on fide nt.Um l know what rm talk ing about and l thi nk l can project that"
"So,what skills would you bring to this job?"
""Well, l realize that rm completely overqualified for this position.l mean,um,in my last job,l was running the whole place."
"Oh,so you've supervised people?"
"Yep,five of them.So,obviously l could do this job ,no proble m.l also have really good computer skills.Um what else do you want to know about me?"
"Eh..."
Even though l was trying really hard,even though l had sent out about 300 resumes,eve n
though I asked all my friend and relatives if they knew of anything」was n't gett ing any
where!Despite all my best efforts」was still un employed.
"Please,why don't you see a career counsellor （顾问）?I'll pay for it.Anything to help you get a job!"
"Samantha,I'm Phyllis Stein.Welcome""Oh,hi,Phyllis.Nice to meet you."
So I figure,heck,why no t?I met with Phyllis Stei n,a professi onal job coach.
"In terview ing is vital to gett ing the job that you wan t."She showed me how to prepare for an in terview by doing research on the positi on and the compa ny .And latter,she coach ing me on my interviewing skills.
"I am going to pretend to be your interviewer,and then we'll stop it and replay it and look at the video and see what we could lear n from that.OK?""I don't think that you should go into an in terview hav ing not practised with some of the questio ns that are pretty sta ndard."
"Tell me about yourself."
"Well,my parents —my mom is a social worker,and my dad is an engineer."
"Your preparati on is really importa nt."
"What do you know about our orga ni zati on?"
"Well,I saw on,um,on the Internet that ,you do bus in ess publish in g?Right?"
"There is a whole range of things that have to do with how you present yourself/"
"Why should I hire you?"
"Oh,well.,u m, I'm a really outgo ing pers on,and I like,I like people a lot .I'm respon sible and nice."
"You n eed to thi nk about what the in terviewer is actually look ing for."
"Sama ntha, what was a major problem that you've encoun tered and how did you solve it?"
"I have n't really had any problems to deal with."
"Tha nk you.Now let's look at your mock in terview on videotape. ""I thi nk it boils dow n （归结为）to preparati on ,prese ntati on, and un dersta nding what the in terviewer is look ing
for "
（Watchi ng the videotape）
"Another way of answering it is not telling about yourself ,but telling your relati on ship to the job ."So,they don't care so much about your pare nts and that you want to live in Cambridge.They may need you to be able to be a troubleshooter.You use some examples in your life from being a troubleshooter."" One of the thi ngs that some one who is an assista nt in a trade show is doing, is dealing with problems .You need to be sure that you stay,sort of ,on target with preve ntin g,prese nting yourself in the stron gest possible way."
This time I felt a lot more con fide nt whe n I went in for the in terview.
"I have developed strong com muni cati on skills .In college I worked on the school paper and I brought some writing samples to show you.""I also worked every summer at a bed-a nd-breakfast.""l worked a lot with our guests .I booked reservati on over the phon e,got them what they n eeded,a nd han dled any compla in s.""Well,I feel like I did really well.We'll see."
Making a good first impressi on is the most importa nt part of a job in terview.
Arrivi ng on time and being con fide nt are the most importa nt parts of a job in terview.
It's very importa nt that you are being con fide nt and you're being clear in your an swers and

"It's not eno ugh to ask what successful people are like.. .It is only by ask ing where they are from that we can un ravel the logic beh ind who succeed and who does n't"
This is the basic idea of an intriguing book called Outliers, by the American journalist Malclom Gladwell.The book explores the factors which con tribute to people who are extremely successful in their careers, for example, the role the family , culture and friend play.
Gladwell exam ines the causes of why the majority of Can ada ice hokey players are born in the first few mon ths of the cale nder year,what the foun der of Microsoft Bill Gates did to achieve his extraord inary success,a nd why the Beatles man aged to redefi ne the whole of popular music in the 1960s.
Gladwell points out that the youth hockey league in Can ada recruits from January the first, so that players born early in the year are bigger,str on ger and better athletes tha n others born later in the year.And because they have this advantage at the start of their sports career,they're give n extra coach in g,a nd so there's a greater cha nee that they'll be picked for an elite hockey team in the future.
He calls this phe nomenon accumulative adva ntage （积累优势）,a bit like the idea that the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.Success depe nds on the process by which tale nted athletes are identified as much as it does on their own abilities.
Ano ther aspect which con tributes to success is the 10000 hour rule .Great success dema nds an enormous amount of time for practise and training.For example,the Beatles performed live in Hamburg Germany more than 1200times over four years,much more than the 10000 hours Gladwell claim is necessary for great success.So by the time they returned to England,they had developed their tale nte and soun ded completely differe nt from any other group.
In the same way,Bill Gates had thousa nds of hours' worth of program ming because he had access to a computer at his high school .He also became a teenagerjust at the right time to take adva ntage of the latest developme nts in computer tech no logy.
Outliers has met with extraord inary sucess,matched only by Gladwell's own career for 25 years in journ alism.As a result, many citics have see n it as an autobiography, in which the writer appears to be apologiz ing for his own pers onal achieveme nts.But the ides that you have to be born at the right moment,in the right place and in the right family,and then you have to work really hard is a thought-provok ing way of revisit ing our traditi onal view of genius and great achieveme nt.lt's certa inly worth read in g,as long as you don't take it too seriously.

P:Hi,we are talking about typical working hours in the US and in Brazil.Eric...um...you're from the States,tell me what are the typical work ing hours in the States?
E:Er...traditi on ally people go to work at 9o'clock in the morni ng and they fin ish at about 5 ,so
sort of a 9to 5.
P:An d,a nd Penny I.. .1 know you're En glish but you work in Brazil,what are the hours in Brazil? Penny:Um varies slightly,sometimes you can start um on an early shift,say,8o'clock in the morning to 5 um or 9 until 6 .But in Brazil often people will work longer hours than this. P:Right,right ok.And what kind of clothes do you wear?I mean do you dress up formally or in a relaxed way?
E:It used to be that you would wear a jacket and tie to work for...for men but er nowadays an open shirt is ok.You don't necessarily have to wear a tie and sometimes on a Friday you can wear a pair of jeans to work.
P:Oh,right the dress down Friday?
E:The dress down Friday that's right. P:Does that still happen?
E:Yes, yes sure it does. P:And how about in Brazil?
Penny:Um, it's fairly casual,quite informal,um I mean you need to look neat and tidy obviously,but you,you have your own choice rely on what you would wear,there are no rules and regulations.It's important to look smart but comfortable.
P:Right,yeah do you have meal breaks or is that...you just fit in meals when you can or...?
E:Lunch,lunch is usually an hour sometimes a little shorter if you have to do a lot of work from your desk.
P:Yeah,how about Brazil?
Penny:That's the same, about an hour.
P:And,and with overtime,I mean,if you...I mean you're obviously contracted to do a certain number of hours.What happens if you do more than the hours that you...that's in you...that are in your contract? E:I have to make a fairly um strict record of my hours so if I go beyond 5 o'clock on most days I put in for overtime.
P:Right.
E:And it's...the first hour is one of overtime and then there's I think 15minute periods after that.So I could work an hour and a quarter .
P:And you'd be paid for the quarter hours? E:That's right,by the quarter hour.
P:How about in Brazil?
Penny:It's,it's a lot looser in Brazil actually.We we often end up doing overtime but unfortunately not paid.
P: Fine.That's hard luck.And what about holidays,what about in the States?You don't have much holidays in the States do you?
E:No.When you start at a company you get two weeks holiday or two weeks vacation as we say...
P:Yeah
E:Um then it's usually not until you've been at the company for about five ears that they give you another week .So you get three weeks after you've been there for five years.
P:And what about in Brazil?
Penny:Um it's quite good actually- 30days . P:Sounds very generous.
Penny:Yeah I can pop back to...
P:ls that 30 working days or 30 days in total?
Penny:That's 30 work ing days
P:Wow,that's
Penny: Yes,yeah it's a good deal.
P:What about retireme nt?l know it's a long way of there!Whe n do you retire?
E:Generally speaking it's at 65.
P:A nd the same for wome n.
E:Um it's I think a little sooner than that for women.Women I think 62or 63 .
P;Right ,good.And in Brazil is it similar?
Penny:Similar to the States .I t's um after 60 for wome n.65 for men ,or if you've clocked up about
30 or 35 years of service the n you can retire after that.
P:Right and whe n...do you have a pay day?Whe n is pay day?
E:Um,well ,we gt paid twice a month,so we get paid at the beginning of the month and then we get paid in the middle of the month at the 15th give or take（大约）.
P:Yeah,a nd what about in Brazil?
Penn y:l think it all depe nds which compa ny you're work ing for.For the one I am work ing for right now I get paid twice a month but when I began,with a different company that was once a mon th,so,it varies.
P:And are there any compa ny ben efits that you have in the States?Do you have a compa ny car or a pension?
E:Yeah,we get a compa ny car.We're able to...we lease a car in effect but it's a compa ny car that we get for 18 mon ths to two years and the n we...we can move on to ano ther model from that.There's a fairly good pension scheme,that's still work in g,a nd hospitalizati on as well.
P:Oh,that's importa nt
E:Yeah,a health plan through work is very important.
P:Right.And what about in Brazil?
Penny: Yeah,excelle nt ben efits like that.Well I mean it does depe nd on the compa ny and the status of your or your job but you might get a car,livi ng accommodati on, school for the childre n ,they'll pay for your lun ch,travel passes,gasoli ne,health in sura nce ,all sorts of ben efits actually it's very good. P:So unds very good,with the holiday and all those ben efits it sounds a great place to work.

Keys: 1D 2.A 3.C 4.B 5.C Task 2: Big John is coming! Script A bar owner in the Old West has just hired a timid bartender. This (S1) owner of the establishment is giving his new hire some instructions on (S2) running the place. He tells the timid man, “If you ever hear that Big John is coming to town, (S3) drop everything and run for the hills! He’s the biggest, nastiest (S4) outlaw who’s ever lived!” A few weeks pass (S5) uneventfully. But one afternoon, a local cowhand comes running through town (S6) yel ling, “Big John is coming! Run for your (S7) lives!” When the bartender leaves the bar to start running, he is knocked to the ground by several townspeople rushing out of town. (S8) As he’s picking himself up, he sees a large man, almost seven feet tall. H e’s muscular, and is growing as he approaches the bar. He steps up to the door, orders the poor barkeep inside, and demands, “I want a beer NOW!” He strikes his heavy fist on the bar, splitting it in half. (S9) The bartender nervously hands the big man a beer, hands shaking. He takes the beer, bites the top of the bottle off, and downs the beer in one gulp. As the terrified bartender hides behind the bar, the big man gets up to leave, “Do you want another beer?” the bartender asks in a trembling voice.“Dang it, I don’t have time!” the big man yells, (S10) “I got to get out of town! Don’t you hear Big John is coming?” Task3: A View of Happiness Script Dr. Smith has proposed a reasonable, if perhaps somewhat oversimplifies, view of happiness. According to his theory, happiness might be described as a state if balance. And when human or certain animals achieve that balance, they rend to remain in that condition in order to repeat the happy feeling. To illustrate this, we may study two magnets. When their positive and negative poles meet, they are comfortably joined, and they remain there. In other words, they have attained a balance or state of happiness. If on the other hand, one of the poles is reversed, and positive pole is presses against positive pole, there is resistance, instability, imbalance a state of unhappiness. Animals with some degree of intelligence seem to find happiness in reinforcement. Once they have gained one or more of their goals such as food, and water, they learn to repeat the actions that led to satisfaction of those goals. This repetition or reinforcement produces a state of balance or sense of happiness. According to this theory, only animals with a

Here, you can learn how, and without any need for special materials or much practice. A trick with a coin, a handkerchief and a friend: Put the coin on your palm. Cover the coin with the handkerchief. Ask several people to put their hands beneath the handkerchief and feel the coin, to make sure that it is still there. Then take the corner of the handkerchief and pull it rapidly off your hand. The coin has gone! How? You must make sure the last friend who feels the coin knows the trick and removes the coin when he seems to be just feeling it. And nobody knows where it has gone! A trick with a piece of paper and a pencil: Tell your friend that you can communicate your thoughts without speaking to other people. Write on the piece of paper the word No. Don't let your friends see what you have written. Say, "Now I will communicate this word into your minds." Pretend to concentrate. Ask them if they know what is written on the paper. They will say, "No!" And you say, "Quite correct! I wrote No on the paper!" A trick with an egg and some salt: Ask your friends to stand the egg upright on the table. They won't manage to do it. Say that you can speak to the chicken inside. Say, "Chicken! Can you hear me? Get ready to balance your egg!" When you first get the egg back from your friends, pretend to kiss the egg at the base. Make the base wet. Then put the base into salt which is in your other hand. The salt will stick to the egg. Then put the egg on the table. Twist the egg around a few times as this will arrange the grains of salt. Then it will stand up. Don't forget to thank the chicken. Questions: 1.What does the magician ask people to do in the first trick 2.What happens to the coin? 3.How does the magician prove that he can communicate his thoughts to the audience in the second trick? 4.What is the first step to make the egg stand upright? 5.What else is needed to make the egg stand upright? Keys: 1. B 2. C 3. C 4. A 5. D
