「每日英文閱讀分享#037-你理想中的公司跟你的核心價值相同嗎?」
▷文章:How to Tell If a Prospective Employer Shares Your Values
▷總結:怎麼知道公司的價值與你的是否相同?
1. 定義:identify your own core values
作者在這裡提供一個網站,https://harvard.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_e35whN7tkXtvlHv
讓讀者去搜尋自己的core values的方法。
2. 提問:ask the right questions during the interview process
用開放式問題讓面試官舉例,作者也舉了幾個問題給大家參考(請看全文),
• 舉一例:What’s an example of conflict at the company around strategy or direction? What led to the conflict? How was it resolved?
作者建議:盡量問follow-up的問題,讓面試官把例子具體化,盡量讓他脫離那個假面具秀出真正的自己。如果面試官覺得尷尬與逃避問題,那你應該知道意思了。
3. 評估:conduct your own assessment to see if your values match those of the organization
為這個公司對於價值的說明打分數。
▷討論:你會在面試上提問嗎?
在我們的文化當中,
心裡就覺得好像被面試的人是一個『被挑選的人』,
可能是因為我們普遍對自己不夠有自信,
也可能是因為我們很想要那個工作。
但是如果不是真正的瞭解,怎麼知道自己不夠符合資格?
但是如果不是真正的瞭解,怎麼知道自己是不是真的很想要呢?
所以『了解』才是最重要的工作,
面試的同時也是,
面試官在了解我們,
在此同時,我們也在了解面試官、了解這個公司,
曾經有幾次我只是因為很開心對方答應了我的薪資要求而忽略了『了解』這個重要環節,
往往都沒有什麼好下場…
最後不只讓浪費了生命,也破滅了幻想。
不如在一開始的時候先充分了解,
反而『自信與探究核心的根本』會讓面試官更印象深刻。
▷單字分享:今天跟大家分享兩個片語,
【land a job】: to find a job and be hired.
Example: As soon as I land a job and start to bring in some money, I’m going to get a stereo. –McGraw-Hill's Dictionary of American Slang and Colloquial Expressions
【flip the script】: To do the unexpected. To deviate from the norm.
Example: If you’re in the candidate’s seat, you can flip this script and use these same behavioral interviewing techniques to learn about the company’s values.--HBR

🖐🏽 五分鐘來關心國際時事— 美國奧勒岡大火 🇺🇸
📰 West Coast Fires Fueled by Winds as Dangers Continue
Blazes tear through small towns; ‘It looks like a bomb went off’
📌 這篇文章關於美國西岸 (West Coast)大火,這些大火是被風激起的 (fueled by winds),危險持續存在 (dangers continue)。blaze (烈火) 是fire的同義詞。
TALENT, Ore.—Residents and officials have begun surveying the vast destruction in Oregon’s small towns while gusty winds and low humidity continue to propel wildfires that have burned millions of acres and displaced thousands of people across the Western U.S.
Conditions remain dire, and a top Oregon official said Tuesday that control of the conflagrations—two of which have been burning since mid-August—could still be weeks away.
📌 這兩段說明居民 (residents) 和官員 (officials) 已經開始調查(survey) 美國 Oregon 的小鎮 (small towns) 廣泛破壞 (vast destruction)。大風 (gusty winds) 和 低潮濕 (low humidity) 繼續推動(propel) 野火wildfires)。displace是常見的動詞。當地一位高級官員說還要幾個星期才可以控制大火災O (conflagrations)。
At least 34 people have been killed so far in the wildfires in California, Oregon and Washington state, part of a wider outbreak that has scorched more than 4.7 million acres in 11 states, according to the National Interagency Fire Center. In California alone, an area larger than the state of Connecticut has been burned this summer.
The National Weather Service issued a Red Flag Warning early Tuesday for parts of Northern California and Oregon, indicating extreme fire conditions exacerbated by wind and drier air.
📌 這兩段告訴讀者,在美國三個州的野火,到目前為止,至少奪走34條人命。這些野火是更大的爆發 (wider outbreak),影響了美國11個州。國家氣象局 (the National Weather Service) 發出紅旗警告 (Red Flag Warning),表示極端大火狀況 (extreme fire conditions),會因為風和乾燥的空氣 (drier air) 而惡化 (exacerbate)。
On Tuesday, Sandra Spelliscy, Talent’s city manager, toured the streets, passing by whole neighborhoods and commercial areas that were destroyed last week. “Half of Talent is gone,” she said.
About 700 homes and businesses were leveled in the city of 6,400 people, and officials estimate that as many as 20% of them are now without a place to live. Ms. Spelliscy and her staff are still tallying up the financial losses. “I cannot even begin to wrap my head around what it’s going to take for the city to get through this, to recover financially,” she said.
📌 這兩段報導城市經理 (city manager) (即負責管理城市的官員) 參觀街道,經過上周被破壞的鄰近地區 (neighborhoods) 和商業區(commercial areas)。市内約7000個家 (homes) 和事業(businesses)被夷平 (leveled),其中20%無家可歸 (without a place to live)。tally up (計算)、financial losses (財務損失) 和 wrap one’s head around something (明白某東西)是道地用語。
A day earlier, Michael “TonTon” Antonopoulos surveyed the twisted metal, charred beams and piles of ash that were the remains of TonTon’s Artisan Affections, his cafe known for its vegan Mediterranean food and lively parties.
“It looks like a bomb went off,” the 50-year-old Mr. Antonopoulos said.
The cafe was wiped out along with hundreds of other businesses in Talent and neighboring Phoenix by last week’s fast-moving Almeda Drive Fire, which also killed four people. A downtown stretch where TonTon’s once stood along with several other shops is now a smoky ruin. The bookstore, the antique store and another building that Mr. Antonopoulos was turning into an event space are all gone.
📌 這三段引述一家咖啡店 (cafe) 老闆一天前視察 (survey) 店的殘餘(remains)。他說破壞像炸彈爆發 (a bomb goes off)。wipe out (徹底摧毀)也是常見的片語。

----文稿----
#1
I had two roommates that kept eating all of my food. Although classes haven't started, I had already moved into my dorm. One day, I made myself a peanut butter sandwich. I put my sandwich on the table, and ten minutes later, it was gone. My roommate ate it. About a week later, I decided to make myself another peanut butter sandwich. I opened my cupboard and saw that my roommates left an empty jar in my cupboard. I flipped out because who eats a whole jar of peanut butter, without introducing themselves? These girls would scarf down all my food, and complain if they thought anyone was touching their food. So I started buying really fattening food such as doughnuts, pies, cakes. I was trying to teach them self-restraint, but these girls would go through these boxes within two days. So I kept buying doughnuts and desserts. And then one day they started complaining about how they couldn't fit their jeans. Success. I also put laxatives in my peanut butter.

dorm 宿舍

flipped out 暴怒
scarf down 狼吞虎嚥

----文稿----
My roommate freshman year got completely hammered, came back to the room around 1 in the morning, and accused me of stealing the pudding in her fridge that she *had ate* an hour before she went out. She waited until I fell asleep and then stabbed me in the arm with one of those clicky pencils…I had to go to the hospital to get it cleaned/stitched. She got kicked out.

hammered 嚴重酒醉

----文稿----
It was move out day and my roommate was working on a paper last minute. I was packing my stuff. His parents walked in and were absolutely pissed that he wasn't packed yet. They immediately started scolding him while I was still in the room, but thankfully I had a final to go to and figured I'd dodge the storm. I said my goodbyes, assuming they'd be gone by the time I got back from my two hour final and went on my way. As it happens, my final only took twenty minutes so I got back much sooner than they'd have expected. I opened the door, saw my roommate bent over his bed with his bare ass showing just as his mom wound up for a spank. I quickly closed the door and went over to a friend's dorm until I felt safe enough to return. I never brought it up to him after that.
----單字----
paper 這裡是指報告
scolding 責罵
dodge the storm 避風頭
assuming 假設、預設
bare 沒穿衣服的、光溜溜
wound up 準備做某個動作
