Speak English Confidently at Workplace | Business English Conversation for Beginners

Good morning, Lucy! I'm William, Head of Human Resources Department, and also your interviewer. Good morning. William. Thank you for inviting me. So, Lucy, can you tell me a bit about yourself? I graduated in Marketing, and I’ve been working as an assistant for two years. Why are you interested in this role? I really enjoy social media, and I want to work in a bigger company.

I feel like I can learn a lot here. That's a good answer. We love passionate people! Thank you. I'm very excited about this opportunity. And what would you say are your strengths? I’m a quick learner, and I love to make new relationships. I also have strong leadership skills. And what do you think is your weakness?

My biggest weakness is that I can’t keep calm. Sometimes I lose control over my reactions. But I'm working on it. Alright! Finally, why should we hire you? I love challenges and I’m able to work under pressure. Wonderful. Thank you for your time, Lucy. We'll be in touch soon. Thank you so much. I look forward to hearing from you.

Hello, Anthony! Welcome to the team. How are you feeling? Thank you, John! I’m a bit nervous… but I'm excited. There’s a lot to take in! That’s normal. On the first day, everyone feels that way. I hope that I don't make any mistakes. Don't worry. Just ask if you're not sure about anything. We’re all here to help, and no one wants you to know everything right away.

Thanks. That makes me feel a lot better. By the way, where is the meeting room? Oh, it's right down the hall. You’ll see a big sign above the door, so you can’t miss it. Thanks! And what does “down the hall” mean exactly? It just means to walk straight down this hallway. The meeting room will be at the end on your left.
