Do you want to have a part-time job, when you are a student? Why (not)?



Frankly speaking, I don’t know because there are many downsides to having a part-time job when you are a student, as well as some advantages. People often think that part-time jobs are responsible for a student’s bad grades because a student pays less attention to the studies.

In my opinion, having a part-time job will actually help a student learn many skills that they might not have the opportunity to learn at university. I believe having a part-time job teaches a student the importance of time man­agement: combining work and studies at the same time. Having a part-time job also teaches a person how to communicate and interact with others.

So having a part-time job teaches students sharp skills which they will need all throughout their careers and lives.

What questions will you ask your future employer at a job interview?

What do you expect me to do in order to help your company achieve its goals?

What are the challenges that I might face in the job if hired?

Have you got any special rules to regulate a working day?

Is there any dress-code in your office?

What is the period of holidays?

Are there any additional financial rewards for the job?

Give some advice on how to behave at a job interview to create a positive impression on the employer?

One thing which all successful people have is the ability to make a good impression.

DRESS DECENTLY

The type of dress or clothes you put on says so much about you. The first judgment that interviewers make is basically based on your dress code. Do not dress in casual or dirty clothes. Instead, look for official clothes and make sure that you are groomed properly.

ARRIVE ON TIME

One of the most important factors to take into consideration, whenever you are invited for an interview, is time. It’s very advisable for you to arrive for the interview at least 20 minutes earlier before the scheduled time. This will give you enough time to organize and recollect yourself well. Being punctual for the interview will also show the interviewers how serious and reliable you are for the job.

BE CONFIDENT

Self-confidence is also one of the most determining factors in an inter­view. During the interviewing process, just be yourself and provide relevant answers to the questions being asked. However, you should be very careful not to be overconfident. Do not go inside with chewing gum in your mouth or with your hands inside your pockets.

Some people think that it is necessary to have computer skills to get a good job. Do you agree with this?

Nowadays it’s almost impossible to imagine any profession without global communication, making presentations and doing many sorts of things on the computer. And sure you must be skillful enough to work with it. Your employer will prefer to have a person who is potentially able to manage all these things.

So, if a person has got a strong motivation, it’ll be easy for him/her to make progress in the computer world. First of all it’s necessary to join some computer courses in case you are unable to manage some things yourselves. But to my mind, the Internet can offer you a great variety of possibilities connected with advancing your computer knowledge.

CARD № 9

Let s talk about your family.

 

What is family for you?

Family is very important for every person, because it gives you a sense of stability and tradition, a feeling of having support and understanding. You feel secure when there’s a family behind you. They are people whom you can trust and rely on, people who won’t let you down and who share your joys and sor­rows. In happy families parents are honest with their children, they treat their children with respect without bossing them, and children in their turn learn how to treat other people and how to form relationship with their peers.

Are you on good terms with your parents and grandparents?

Yes, I am. I enjoy honest and open relationship in my family. I like it when parents trust their children, give them enough freedom and respect them. I think these things make family relations warm and pleasant. There is no so-called "generation gap" in our family, though we may argue and dis­agree on certain issues. For example, my parents don’t always approve of my tastes, views and clothes.

In fact I have a closer relationship with my mother. We understand each other better, which I think is quite natural. We can spend hours and hours talking about our family problems, fashion, views on education, people’s relations and ambitions.

I guess when people spend more time together they become closer to each other. It’s a pity, but my parents and I are usually very busy during the week­days and we seldom have a chance to spend time together. Sunday is the day when we can sit at the table and talk over everything what happened during the week. Eating together makes us feel close and we often have our most frank conversations at this time. Also once a week my mum gives the flat a big clean. Of course I help her with it. By the way it’s not so boring. I turn on music and we even have fun. Then we may go shopping together. During our shopping rounds we discuss a lot of things and make plans for the next weekend. I try to keep in touch with my grandparents. They are always inter­ested in my daily routine, my plans, my school studies and always show sup­port and understanding when I have some problems. I also do my best to be helpful for them with household duties and summer work at our dacha.
