Describing a Street

はい、こんにちは。今回はポッドキャストの24回目です。寒くなくなりましたが、天気のいい日と悪い日が交互に続いています。昨日は休みでした。天気が悪かったので久しぶりに漫画を読みました。漫画は、子供の時読むのと、大人になってから読むのでは印象が違いますね。昔読んだことのある漫画でしたが、重要な部分はほとんど覚えていませんでした。

Hello. This is episode 24 of my podcast. It is no longer cold, but the weather is alternating between good and bad. Yesterday was my day off. The weather was bad, soI read comics for the first time in ages. Reading them as a child and reading it as an adult gives a very different experience. I had read this manga in the past, but I could barely remember the important parts.

春なので、面接を受ける人が多いです。今日は日本の面接について話したいと思います。面接の種類は様々です。簡単なアルバイトの面接だと、数分の面接をして、だいたい１週間以内に結果がわかります。大きな会社の面接だと、１ヶ月ぐらいかけて、３回以上面接をすることもあります。最近はオンラインの面接も増えています。

It is spring and many people have interviews. Today I would like to talk about interviews in Japan. There are different types of interviews. For a simple part-time job interview, the interview lasts a few minutes and you will usually find out the result within a week. For interviews with large companies, it may take about a month and you may be interviewed three or more times. More and more interviews are being conducted online these days.

面接を受けるときは、履歴書を持っていきます。日本の履歴書は、フォーマットが決まっています。「履歴書」という名前の用紙が、文房具屋や、100円ショップや、コンビニで売っています。英語圏の履歴書は、自分でドキュメントを作らなければいけませんが、日本の履歴書は、用紙を買って、空欄を埋めるだけなので、少し楽です。

When you are interviewed, take your CV with you. Japanese CVs have a fixed format. You can buy a form called "Rirekisyo" at stationery stores, 100 yen shops and convenience stores. While in English-speaking countries you have to create your own document, the Japanese CV is a little easier as you just buy the form and fill in the blanks.

英語圏の履歴書と違うところは、日本の履歴書には、必ず生年月日を書かなければいけないところです。他には、履歴書に証明写真を貼らなければいけません。免許証やIDに使うものと同じ証明写真が必要なので、写真撮影だけで1000円ぐらいかかります。しかも、証明写真を撮るために、髪型を整えたり、メイクをしたり、きちんとした服を着なければならないので、面倒ですね。

How to Answer Difficult Questions in a Meeting

Professional networking is the strategic cultivation of relationships with individuals and groups within your industry or field. It goes beyond simply collecting business cards; it's about building genuine connections, fostering mutually beneficial exchanges, and creating a network that can support your professional growth.

The more you network, the more people you can potentially lean on when you need a professional favor. This can ultimately benefit you in your career and help you reach your professional goals.


Benefits of Professional Networking:

Career Advancement: Networking can open doors to new job opportunities through referrals, introductions, and increased visibility within your field.

Knowledge Sharing and Learning: Networking allows you to tap into the expertise and experiences of others. This includes learning about industry trends, best practices, and valuable insights that may not be readily available elsewhere.

Increased Visibility and Credibility: Actively engaging in professional networks helps you establish yourself as a thought leader within your industry. By sharing your knowledge and expertise, you build trust and credibility, enhancing your professional brand.

Finding Mentors and Allies: Through networking, you can connect with experienced professionals who can offer guidance and support as you navigate your career path. These mentors can provide valuable career advice, feedback, and encouragement.

Building Strategic Partnerships: Professional networks can lead to collaborations and partnerships with other businesses or individuals who share your goals or complement your skillset.
