人教版高中英语人教全日制普通高中英语（必修）高三UNIT16-2

Most application forms for jobs or further education include a section that asks you to write a paragraph or more about yourself. This could be in a general way, which is often called a personal statement, or as a response to a specific question. The types of question you might be asked are:
    ● Why do you think you would be good at this job?
    ● What are your career goals?
    ● What personal characteristics do you have that show you will be successful in this profession?
    ● Explain why you have applied¹.
     This is your chance to persuade an employer² or educator what a great addition to their company, organisation³, college or university you would be. From your answer they will decide whether they are interested in you, so it is important to make a good impression. We asked some employers⁴ for some tips on how to create a positive effect. Here's what they said:
