I always get very nervous in an interview. Answering questions objectively, with common sense and clarity is very difficult when you have to overcome nervousness.

@highlevellistening 😅📝
Thank you two for one more episode. I think my hearing is getting more accurate. There is a missing part of the dialogue at 2:24 subtitle. "...practicing answers, (brushing up a bunch of skills) and I think my..." Am I correct? By the way, I uually prefer the British English, in general, but for some reason, Kat's English is pretty easy to understand
Oh interesting - thanks for letting us know about the subtitle mistake! We'll keep an eye on that for future episodes.
Hi. Still don't understand the meaning of " rewriting my cover letter ". Could you please explain it abit more? And why did you rewrite it? Thanks.
Good question!
You might change (or rewrite) your cover letter to tailor it to different jobs.
If you were applying for an IT job, you might mention more of your IT and computer experience in the cover letter.
But if you were applying for a job in a hospital, you might mention more of your medical, nursing, or caring experience in the cover letter.
When companies read the cover letters, if they don't seem to match the job description very well, they will probably throw it away! That's why some people might rewrite each cover letter they send out, so it is carefully tailored to the job opening and they are more likely to get an interview.
I hope that makes sense!
Can I use “We’re a really good fit.” to describe good friends, good partners or even a romantic relationship?
Thanks for your answer. 😊
Oo good question!
Yes, you can definitely use this phrase to talk about friends, relationships, colleagues and jobs too.
- My husband and I are a really good fit.
- My new work schedule is a really good fit for me now that I have my baby.
You might also hear: "a really good match"
- I think we're a really good match, I hope we go on another date.
- My colleague and I are a good match, we work well together as a team.
I hope that helps! 🙏
@@highlevellistening Thank you for the extra example sentences. It does help. 🥰😘😍☺️😗😃
Could you possibly make a video of job interview. I really appreciate your hard work. 🎉❤
We've got that topic on our list for future videos!
@@highlevellistening So nice!!!
🤍😊
may I know what's the difference between this time n this time around?
Good question! There's actually no difference!
You can say:
- [This time] we will start at 10:30
- [This time around] we will start at 10:30.
They would have the same meaning! Hope that makes sense!
❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for studying with us again! 💖
I am from Pittsburgh I want learn English
Well we think you're in the right place!
@ okay
❤❤❤❤❤❤
🤗🤗🤗🤗
Thanks for studying with us once more!
Surprisingly, I have never been on interviews , I am sure it could be rather nerve wrecking. I wish I had an online job nowadays.
What 's the difference between apply for a job or apply to a job?
Thank you!
Good question!
There is a small difference between [apply for] and [apply to].
You will [apply for] + a job / a position
- I applied for a job at Microsoft.
- I applied for a manager position at my company.
- I think you should apply for that job, you would be perfect for it!
You will [apply to] + a company / a department / verb
- I applied [to teach] at the local school.
- I applied to Meta as a software engineer.
Honestly though, you can often use apply for or apply to interchangeably and you will always be understood, so don't stress about it too much!
@highlevellistening got it, thank you!

Hunting for a job makes the owners look poor and upnormally lazy pitches
