Today we're talking about job interviews. We’re going to look at some vocabulary that you can use to improve how you perform in your next job interview. Or, if you’re writing a CV, cover letter, or a resume, these are words and phrases that you should think about including. Whether you're a student, a graduate, or someone with a lot of experience, job interviews can be scary. Especially if you're not a native English speaker. Hopefully today we can make them a little easier for you! I work with people from all over the world to improve how handle job interviews and hopefully you will find some of that in today's podcast.

Breakout Business English - Ep 5 - Job Interview Vocabulary

More than seven out of 10 Americans have been dishonest when trying to get a job, according to a new survey.

A company called ResumeTemplates asked 1,250 people in the US about how honest they are when looking for jobs, doing interviews or taking tests during the hiring process.

And 71% of US job seekers said they'd been dishonest.

One of the most common things to do was to give a false reference. Almost half of the participants said they'd done this.

Some said they didn't have a real reference to give, while others said their last boss didn't like them.

But people said they'd been dishonest all through the hiring process. More than one in five people said they'd lied on their resume.

Some companies give people tests during the hiring process — and 22% of people said they'd used Google, artificial intelligence software or the help of others to answer test questions.

So does being dishonest work?

The answer to that question might be "sometimes" — only around three out of 10 people said they had gotten caught.

Of course, that doesn't mean being dishonest is the right thing to do.

However, a 2023 survey by a company called Resume Builder found that it's not just people looking for jobs who lie.

In fact, the survey of more than 1,000 hiring managers found that almost 40% have lied to people in job interviews.

Today's topic is, how to be more confident when speaking in meetings.

Some of you might know this already but my full time job is working with non native English speakers, one to one, on video calls to improve their confidence and ability when using English at work. And the number one thing that people tell me they need to improve is their confidence in meetings! How can I become more confident in meetings, how can I express my ideas better, how can I make my meetings easier. This is what we’re going to discuss today. 

For non-native English speakers, speaking in meetings can be a challenging and daunting task. Whether you’re presenting in front of a large group or just participating in a small discussion, it can be difficult to feel confident in your ability to express yourself. However, with a few simple tips, you can start speaking more confidently in meetings sooner rather than later.

At the same time, we’re going to look at some useful vocabulary and sentence structures that we can use to do this. So if you want to grab a pen to take some notes, feel free, and let’s get started.

Oh, and right at the end we’ll review a couple of the more interesting pieces of vocabulary I’ve included in today’s podcast.

Speaking in meetings. How to become more confident!

おはようございます。Atsushiです。

今日の天気は曇り、気温は15℃、
北海道はまだまだ寒いです。
みなさんの住んでいるところの天気はどうでしょうか。

家の近くにとてもきれいな川があります。
今日はその川沿いを歩きながら録音しています。

今日は、なぜ北海道に住んでいるかを話します。
理由は僕の妻、奥さんの転勤があったからです。
僕は、今オンラインの仕事をしているので、場所を選びません。
ですので、一緒に引越をしました。

北海道へ来て、まだ1週間ほどですが、とてもワクワクしながら生活しています。
今まで見れなかった自然や、おいしい食べ物があるので、とても楽しいです。

きっと、天気や気温も1番良い時に、北海道へ引越してきたので、冬はとても心配です。
場所によってはマイナス20℃近くまで下がるところもあるそうです。
そんな気温の変化も冬にお伝えしたいと思います。

ということで、最後まできいてくださり、ありがとうございます！
ではまた！
