So, how many applications did we get, Marcia?
瑪西亞，我們有多少申請者了？

Well...overall we’ve got over two hundred...
好，我看看……已經(jīng)有200多個人申請我們的職位了……

That many!?
那么多?。?/span>

Yes, but...most of which we can discard right away...people who don’t have the right experience, qualifications that kind of thing...
是的，但是……大多數(shù)我們都可以忽略不計……他們沒有對口的經(jīng)驗和資歷……

Of course...
那是當然……

...and then we get the people who submit ten-page-long CVs, or CVs in comic book font, or green ink,
……有些申請者交了一份10頁長的報告，還有的居然用了漫畫字體，或者是綠色的墨水，

or they attach a photo of themselves disco dancing...you know the kind of thing!
有些申請者在簡歷上附的照片竟然是在蹦迪時拍的……簡直太不當回事了！

So, I whittled down the serious candidates to a shortlist of twelve people.
所以，我壓縮了最終人選者人數(shù)，選出了12名態(tài)度認真的候選人。

And we’ll interview all of them?
這12個人我們都要面試嗎？

I think we should – but obviously I’ll let you have a look first.
我覺得應(yīng)該都面試 – 但在這之前，我會讓你看一下入選名單。

Great...so, who have we got then?
很好……我們找到的人怎么樣？

Well, I think we’ve got some pretty strong candidates, two in particular...
我覺得我們找到了幾個實力非常強的候選人，其中有兩個尤為突出……

They have the right kind of profile?
他們的簡歷很對口？

I’d certainly say so – a strong educational background, experience in multinational sales, language skills...
當然 – 非常好的教育背景，有跨國銷售經(jīng)驗，語言技能也很不錯……

Good, I look forward to meeting them.
很好，我很期待能見見他們。

So I’d say we do the standard interview format…
那我們就著手做標準面試表吧……

Sure…
好的……

A few general questions, then onto specifics...
先問幾個一般性問題，之后再問有針對性的問題……

Yes, exactly – I want to hear specific details of when they’ve solved problems...
對，很正確 – 對于他們曾經(jīng)解決過的問題，我希望能聽到具體的細節(jié)信息……

Yes and then something about “vision”, as you put it...
好的，然后是一些關(guān)于“視野”的問題，因為你在這方面提出了要求……

Yes...what do you think about a brief presentation?
是的……讓他們做個簡短陳述，你覺得怎么樣？

I think that’s a good idea – we could ask them to give a short presentation on where they see the company going – and how they see themselves taking us there.
我覺得是個好主意 – 我們可以請他們就公司的發(fā)展走向做一個簡短陳述 – 并且講一講他們?nèi)绾螏椭緦崿F(xiàn)發(fā)展目標。

Great! You know something? I’m really looking forward to this!
非常好！你知道嗎？我真的非常期待見到他們！
