Раз уж мы заговорили о собеседованиях, делимся целой историей с фразовыми глаголами и идиомами:
After the IT school, I was turned down by lots of companies before I was finally taken on by a VR startup. I thought it was a nine-to-five job but I was wrong. I had to work all hours, and our CEO was constantly checking up on me to make sure I was hard at it. To make matters worse, we were dealing with some financial difficulties. Once I realized that I wasn’t cut out for the job, I decided to hand in my notice. But before I had a chance, they gave me the sack – they realized I was hopeless!
📌to turn sb. down – to say “no” to sb. when they apply for sth.
📌to take sb. on – to employ sb.
📌to check up on sb. – to watch sb. to make sure they are doing their job
📌to be hard at it. – to be working hard
📌to be cut out for sth. / to do sth. – to have the necessary qualities and ability for sth. / to do sth.
📌to hand in your notice – to formally tell your employer that you are leaving your job

И ещё пару моментов по следам вебинара Managing project communication:
3️⃣ Communication plan is a powerful tool that can help you organize communication on the project. It should answer the following questions:
📌Who will you communicate with?
📌What will be communicated? (e.g. status report)
📌How often will you communicate? (e.g. monthly)
📌How will you communicate? (e.g. at the leadership meetings, by email, etc.)
4️⃣ If you lead a meeting, keep the following rules in mind:
📌keep the number of topics to be discussed in one meeting at a minimum, be aware of information overload
📌use visuals and charts
📌use simple terminology - avoid jargon, slang and terms that may not be universally understood
📌speak clearly and ask specific questions rather than “yes”, “no”, “do you understand?”
📌be aware of non-verbal cues from stakeholders that may indicate a lack of understanding

🧑💻На прошлой неделе мы ещё и воркшоп провели. Наша преподавательница, которая работает в международном ИТ-рекрутинге, рассказала, как подготовиться к ситуационным вопросам на интервью. 📌📌📌Bullet points воркшопа:
📌Situational questions are designed to highlight your true strengths, weaknesses and characteristics without directly asking you what they are. Such questions can start with, for example:
Tell me how you approached a situation where...
📌You can use STAR technique to answer such a question:
⭐️Situation
⭐️Task
⭐️Approach
⭐️Result
📌If you are asked a situational interview question that you don’t know how to answer because you’ve never been in such a situation, you can say:
I’ve never found myself in such a situation. If I had such a situation, I would... (and continue with using second conditional)
Это не все. Завтра продолжим, а пока вы можете посмотреть запись воркшопа по ссылке

📌You can prepare for your next situational interview by coming up with a few examples of:
✔️challenges
✔️mistakes/failures
✔️conclusions (what you’ve done differently)
✔️accomplishments
✔️conflicts
✔️drive
✔️leadership
using STAR technique
📌You can also check a job description and come up with a story for when you’ve previously performed each skill listed in your job ad
