In this podcast I’ll share new vocabulary, phrases, idioms, and slang.
If the source material is for advanced learners, I speak mainly in Thai.
As for lower levels, I’ll speak both Thai and English.

要是你发现身体有一点不舒服，你会怎么办呢？是马上去医院看医生？还是自己在家里吃药？还是在网上找答案呢？在中国，我们有一句话，“身体有问题的话，一定不要在网上找答案，否则，你会怀疑自己得了非常严重的病。”
    去年冬天，我的鼻子常常流血，有时候打个喷嚏都会流很多血。因为那个时候的流行感冒很严重，所以我选择在网上找答案。可是，当我输入“鼻子常常流血的原因”后，出现的答案让我害怕了。因为它说我得了鼻癌，然后接下来的一个月我的身体可能还有其它不舒服的地方。我既担心，又害怕。一个星期以后，我终于决定去医院检查了。可是医生告诉我，我的鼻子流血只是因为空气干燥。房间里面只要放一个加湿器就可以了。
    从那以后，我生病都会去看医生，再也不相信网上的答案了。

我生病了

日本では10月のことを「神無月（かんなづき）」と呼ぶことがあります。神社の数は（8万8千）はコンビニの数（5万5千）より多いのに、そこから神様はどこにお出かけなんでしょうか。実は島根（しまね）県に出雲大社（いずもたいしゃ）という、大きな神社があって、そちらでサミットのご予定なんです。あちらでは、超過密な「神在月（かみありづき）」、ホストの神様は大忙しです。ちなみに、この神様オオクニヌシは、ヘンリー8世 HenryVIII　みたいです。なぜでしょう？　答えは、聞いたらわかるよ。

Behavioral interview questions are a strategic tool used to assess a candidate's fit for a role.  The core principle is that past behavior is a strong predictor of future actions. By prompting candidates to share specific examples (often following the STAR method: Situation, Task, Action, Result), interviewers gain valuable insights into a candidate's:

Skills: Behavioral questions can target specific skills listed in the job description. For instance, "Tell me about a time you had to solve a complex problem with limited resources."

Decision-Making: These questions uncover a candidate's thought process under pressure. An example could be, "Describe a situation where you had to make a difficult decision with incomplete information."

Communication: Exploring past communication challenges reveals a candidate's ability to articulate ideas and navigate conflict. For example, "Tell me about a time you disagreed with a colleague's approach. How did you communicate your perspective?"

Behavioral interviewing helps identify:

Problem-Solving Approach: By asking about past challenges, insight is gained into the candidate's problem-solving methodology.

Work Style: Understanding how a candidate tackled past situations sheds light on their preferred work style (independent, collaborative, etc.).

Company Culture Fit: These questions reveal a candidate's values and work ethic, allowing for an assessment of their alignment with the company culture.

Benefits:

Reduced Bias: Focusing on past actions minimizes the influence of unconscious bias based on appearance or background.

Increased Predictability: Understanding a candidate's past performance in similar situations improves the likelihood of future success in the role.

Deeper Candidate Evaluation: Behavioral questions move beyond a resume, revealing a more complete picture of the candidate.
