Episodio 6: El salón de profesores

Emma: So, Mark, I detect an American accent. Are you from the States?

Mark: Yes, that's right. Have you ever been there?

Emma: No, but I've always wanted to go. Whereabouts do you come from in the States?

Mark: Well, I was born and brought up in San Diego. How about you? Did you grow up in London?

Emma: No, actually, I come from Brighton originally.

Mark: What exactly are you doing in London?

Emma: Iwork as an assistant for a television studio. It's pretty cool because I get to meet a lot of interesting people. I also get on really well with my colleagues, and I've made a lot of friends.

Mark: Sounds interesting. How long are you here for?

Emma: I'm here until the summer. Then I intend to go backpacking around Europe.

Mark: Great.

Emma: How about you? What line of work are you in?

Mark: Actually, I'm a student. I'm doing a Master's degree in architecture. I hope to work for an architectural firm in London when I graduate.

Emma: Oh, that's interesting. I imagine you must be a very creative person.
Mark: Well, I try to be.

Emma: How long have you been studying in London?
Mark: About a year, though it seems much longer.

Emma: How do you like the city?

Mark: I love it. There's such a variety of things to see and do. I'm not too keen on the weather, though.

Emma: Yes, it's been a pretty wet summer this year. Even by London standards. What's the weather like in San Diego at this time of year?

Mark: Oh, it's pretty sunny right now. So, what do you like doing in your spare time?

Emma: Well, recently, I've taken up yoga, so I've been spending quite a bit of time practicing it. Apart from that, I enjoy reading, going out and visiting museums and occasionally going to concerts.

Mark: Oh, really? What kind of music are you into?

Emma: Mainly rock. Though I listen to jazz and classical sometimes.

It's important to prepare properly for virtual interviews. These are some tips that you should follow in addition to in person interview strategies:

Test your equipment well in advance. Do test calls with friends and family to check your camera, microphone and internet connection work smoothly. Have a backup plan if issues arise.
Familiarize yourself with the interview platform.
Choose your interview space carefully. Opt for a quiet, well-lit room with a neutral background if possible. Minimize distractions and ensure good lighting on your face.

Make sure to dress professionally. First impressions matter, even virtually.
Wear professional attire as if for an in-person interview.
Avoid flashy jewelry or clothing.

Review the job description and your resume thoroughly to be able to discuss how your qualifications align with what they need. Have examples ready of your skills and accomplishments.
Learn about the company, its culture, and values.
Understand the job role and required skills.

Practice answering common questions out loud. Record yourself and review for ways to speak more clearly and engage the camera more. Work on your speaking voice and body language.
 Nerves show up differently online.
Conduct mock interviews with a communication coach or career counselor. Book a session with me.
Be punctual—log in a few minutes early.

Stay calm and confident.
Be present. Smile, make eye contact with the camera, and listen actively.
Ask if you can take notes during the interview.
 Interviews are a two-way street. Ask questions too to see if the role and company are right for you.

 Follow-Up:

Send a thank you email post-interview.
Reflect on your performance and note areas for improvement.
Schedule a post interview coaching session to discuss further interviews, contract negotiation, and preparing for the role.

Just a cute little episode about sleeping habits, but this time the text is of an intermediate level. 


Idioms:

Мягко стелешь, жестко спать - stop lying;
Вернемся к нашим баранам - let's go back to the topic;
Что Черчилль пил на ночь - just a fun tongue twister.
