[화상 영어] 두번째 수업 리뷰

수업 날짜 : 24/03/18

 

오늘 수업의 주제는 job market / applying company 였다.

평소 수업보다 많은 말을 하진 않았지만, 지난 주 Ross가 해줬던 문법 및 완전한 문장으로 생각하고 말하려고 노력했던 것 같고, 아직 문법은 좀 더 신경을 써야할 것 같다. (특히 과거형과 분사구문)

1. Conversation Review

Ross : What did you do today?

Me : Today, I go to my office and I read some AI papers and did some work that my mentor talk to me.

의도 :  오늘 저는 평소와 똑같이 출근을 해서, AI 관련 논문들을 좀 읽고 사수가 시킨 일들을 하였습니다.
의도(English) : Today I went to work as usual, read some AI papers and did what the senior told me to do.

 

Ross : So have you looked for jobs recently?

Me : This year, at January and Febuary I searched for some job.
의도 : 이번년도 1,2월에 일자리를 구한 적이 있어요.
의도(English) : I looked for a job in January and February of this year.

 

Ross : What kind of jobs were you looking for?

Me : Mostly software engineer and some also AI research engineer
의도 : 거의 AI researcher이나 AI engineer 위주로 찾아봤고 소프트웨어 엔지니어도 찾아봤어요.
의도(English) : I was mostly looking for AI researchers or AI engineers, and I was also looking for software engineers.

 

Ross : Where did you go to look for these jobs?

Me : I usually find my jobs in linkedin or SNS like Facebook or search engine like google, naver.

의도 : 주로 링크드인을 활용해서 찾고, 페이스북같은 SNS나 구글, 네이버 같은 검색엔진도 활용해요.
의도(English) : I use LinkedIn to find them, and I also use social media like Facebook and  search engines like Google 

and Naver.

 

Ross : Which tool do you think is the most successful for you so far?

Me : I think SNS is the most useful to me because in SNS I can hear some people who works at that company, so I can hear there thoughts.
의도 : 제 생각에는 SNS가 가장 괜찮은 것 같아요. 왜냐하면 SNS에서는 그 회사를 실제 다니는 사람에게 좀 더 진솔한 이야기를 들을 수 있거든요.
의도(English) : I think social media is the best because I can get some more authentic information from someone who  actually works at the company.

 

Ross : What helps you out by hearing their thoughts?(그들의 생각을 들으면 어떤 점이 도움이 되나요?)

Me : If someone satisfy their company works and the reason they satisfy is good to hear for me, I think that company is good company. Because some company have some trouble between employers and employee but when employees satisfy for their leader, I think that is good company.
의도 : 만약 실제 그 회사에 다니는 사람들이, 회사의 업무나 전반적인 부분에서 만족한다면 상당히 좋게 인식될 것 같아요. 왜냐하면 많은 경우에 회사가 겉으로 보기엔 좋아보이지만, 실제 다니는 사람들은 매우 불만이 많을수도 있을 것 같거든요.
의도(English) : If the people who actually work at the company are happy with the overall works, I think it's perceived pretty well, because a lot of times, a company can look good on the outside, but the people who actually work there can be very unhappy.

 

Ross : Did you get a response from either company?

Me : Yes, but I failed in final interview.
의도 : 네, 그런데 최종 면접에서 떨어졌어요.
의도(English) : Yes, but I didn't get the final interview.

 

Ross : Did they tell you what was the reason for not passing the final interview?

Me : No they didn't tell me about that reason. But I think my experience is too lower than other candidates.
의도 : 아니요. 딱히 떨어진 이유에 대해 말해주지는 않았지만, 아마 경험이 매우 부족하고 면접을 다른 지원자들보다 조금 더 못보지 않았기 때문이라고 생각해요.
의도(English) : No. They didn't tell me exactly why I didn't get the job, but I think it was because I was very 

inexperienced and didn't interview as well as the other candidates.

 

Ross : When you decide to start looking for jobs again, what are the steps that you take to prepare for the interview?

Me : At first I think making my CV is the most important thing. And then, when. I prepare my CV, I will practice coding test because all of the software engineer needs to do coding test.
의도 : 첫 번째로 가장 중요한 것은 제 정보를 잘 담을 수 있는 깔끔한 CV를 만드는 것이라고 생각해요. 그리고 CV를 만들었다면, 코딩 테스트나 기술 면접 준비를 할 것 같아요.
의도(English) :  I think the first and most important thing is to create a neat CV that captures my information well, and 

once I have that, I would prepare for coding tests and technical interviews.

 

Ross : What else might you do to prepare for the interview?

Me : And then I think I will gather some people who find jobs and prepare interview together.
의도 : 그리고 나서 저는 같이 면접 준비를 하는 사람들을 모아, 서로의 면접을 봐주고 피드백도 해주고 하는 스터디를 꾸릴 것 같아요.
의도(English) : And then I think I would organize a study group of people who are preparing for interviews together, and we would watch each other's interviews and give each other feedback.
