Listening
1 03 Listen to an interview with a career adviser and
complete the email.
Hi Marta,
I’ve just listened to an interview with Janet Brown,
a career adviser. It was a real eye-opener! She said
that young people usually consult her when they want
to find 1 ________________, but advisers can best
help teenagers aged as young as 13 or 14. Of course,
they’re not usually looking for advice themselves
at that age, so it’s more often 2 ________________
who arrange a visit because they believe that it will
help their child find out more about their interests
and strengths. In the case of such young teenagers,
however, advisers don’t focus on 3 ________________ .
Advisers also work with older teenagers – they help
them decide 4 ________________ they are going to
take for their final exams. Then, Jane gave some more
general advice. She suggested that young people
should find a summer job. This allows them to develop
their skills and experience 5 ________________ . She
also advised teenagers to take personality tests. Finally,
she encouraged young people to talk to people who’ve
already 6 ________________ , especially if their job is
related to what they are planning to do in the future.
We can talk more about it when we meet.
Take care,
Lee

Reading
2 Read the text and complete the gaps 1–4 with the
correct fragments A–E. There is one extra fragment.
Job interviews can be very stressful. No matter how
many times you have gone through the process, each
time you are invited to one, you will experience the
same kind of apprehension as you did the first time.
This is because an interview always means meeting
new people and answering new questions. The good
news is that by preparing yourself carefully, you can
relieve at least some of the tension.
Preparation for the interview should primarily involve
finding out some information about the company.
Do some research into their mission, products and
any projects they have completed. 1 ______________
You will also find it easier to present your skills and
experience in the most effective way.
Apart from researching the company before
the interview, you might also try searching the Internet
for some of the typical questions you may be asked.
2
________________ They should also highlight
the skills which are of most relevance both for
the employer and for the post.
On the other hand, even the best answers will not
serve their purpose if they don’t match what you are
asked about. 3 _______________ Most interviewers
also allow candidates to ask their own questions,

so have two or three ready to show your interest in
the company.
Making a good impression is not only connected with
what you say during the interview. What also matters
is your appearance and your manners. Getting your
outfit ready the day before the big day will definitely
make you more composed in the morning so you can
be more focused on what really matters. Choosing the
appropriate clothes may seem difficult as there are no
hard and fast rules concerning job interview outfits.
4
_______________ Finally, remember to get to
the interview on time, which in fact means you have
to arrive earlier just in case you get lost or something
unexpected happens.
To sum up, although the stress related to job
interviews is unavoidable, there are ways in which you
can manage it. Good preparation will help you stay
calm so you can do your best.
A Once you have done this, the next step will be to
prepare answers to them in such a way that makes
them specific yet informative.
B This will help you understand what they are
looking for in candidates.
C You should therefore listen carefully to
the questions and make sure your answers are
relevant.
D It’s equally important not to mention details
concerning your previous employment unless the
interviewers ask you about it.
E However, most companies still keep quite
a traditional approach, so going for something
casual but elegant is definitely the safest thing
to do.
