今天的这段对话，在讨论应聘者，
 
你认为最后一个应聘者缺乏自信的理由有哪些
 
来听今天的讲解:
 
A:  well, what did you think about the last candidate? Do you think we should hire her?
 
嗯， 你对最后一个应聘者有什么看法？你觉得咱们应该录用她吗？
 
B:  she had a very impressive resume, but she seemed to lack the confidence that I think a good manager needs.
 
她的简历令人印象深刻，但是她本人似乎有点缺乏自信，这恰恰是一个优秀的经理所必须的条件之一。
 
A:  what made you think that she wasn’t very confident?
 
你是怎么看出她缺乏自信的？
 
B:  did you notice the way that she avoided making eye contact with us while she talked?
 
你有没有注意到，在谈话中她总是回避和我们目光交流？
 
A:  she was a bit nervous, I guess. What else?
 
我猜她可能有点儿紧张。还有其它理由吗？
 
B:  when she first walked into the room to greet us, she didn’t shake our hands or introduce herself at all. I thought that was a bit unprofessional.
 
她初进房间跟我们打招呼的时候，既没有和咱们握手也没有做自我介绍。我觉得这种表现有点不专业。
 
A:  you’re right. If she walked into meeting with our clients like that, it would make our company look bad, wouldn’t it?
 
你说的有些道理。如果她参与与客户的会晤也是这种表现，可能会有损我们公司的形象，是吧？
 
B:  it sure would. Did you also notice the way she slouched in her chair during most of the interview? She had horrible posture!
 
肯定是这样的。你有没有注意她在面试时大部分时间都是懒洋洋地坐在椅子上。那副姿态实在是太难看了。
 
A:  I agree. I guess I was paying more attention to her answers than her body language. She didn’t keep enough distance between us during the meeting.
 
我同意。我想当时我一定是太关注她的问题而忽略了她的身体姿态。在谈话中她没有跟我们保持足够的距离。
 
A:  that’s true. I guess we’ll have to keep looking for a manager then.
 
没错，我想咱们还得再继续找能担任经理的其他合适人选。
 
B:  don’t worry, we’ll find someone eventually!
 
别担心，咱们一定能找到的。
