新視野大學英語視聽說教程第三冊 Unit 4 MODEL 1 Can you give me some tips about how to get a good job?

Susan: John, can you give me some tips about how to get a good job?

John: Did you go to the job fairs and meet with companies?

Susan: Yeah, I did. But they didn’t seem to be interested in women. I thought about suing then for sexual discrimination.

John: I’m afraid it won’t be much help. Have you looked at the want ads in the newspaper?

Susan: I’ve been checking the want ads every day for a week, but I can’t find anything interesting that I’m qualified for. And the few that I have seen are very low-paying.

John: Then try the Internet. You can use a search engine to find a job site related to your field.

Susan: Good thinking! Thanks! I think I’ll look for something in electronic engineering.

John: Hey, I just saw a job opening at a company called E-Tech. It could be just the sort of thing you’re looking for.

Susan: Great, I’ll try my luck there.

John: Yeah, but if I remember, the deadline is this afternoon.

Susan: This afternoon? Oh no! I’d better get online quickly and see if I can submit my resume by E-mail.

John: Wait, have you updated your resume? You’d better include your work experience from the IT company last summer.

Susan: Don’t worry. It’s all set. Thanks, mate.

John: Any time, Sue.
