主试人米切尔询问了应试人杨茜销售方面的相关经验。

Mitchell: Have you had any experience with sales work?

Yang Qian: Yes, I have. In fact, I had worked for a foreign trade company for nearly two years, where I established business ties with several firms.

Mitchell: What exactly did you do at that company?

Yang Qian: Visit customers, dispatch¹ consignments² and things like that.

Mitchell: Did you like your work?

Yang Qian: Yes, I did.

Mitchell: But when and why did you leave the company?

Yang Qian: I left it two months ago. I didn't think I could learn much there, and there were not many opportunities for self-development.

Mitchell: I see. Why did you choose our company?

Yang Qian: I've been informed that there are many opportunities to develop myself in your company. Besides, I grew up in a city in the Northeast. I have lots of acquaintances³ in the region⁴, which might help to push sales.

杨茜：是的，我有。实际上，我在一家外贸公司工作了近两年。我为该公司找到了几个业务伙伴。

米切尔：你在哪家公司具体干些什么？

杨茜：访问客户、发运货物，诸如此类的事。

米切尔：你喜欢你的工作吗？

杨茜：是的，喜欢。

米切尔：那么你是何时并且为何离职的呢？

杨茜：我是两个月前离开的。我认为在那儿学不到多少东西，并且哪里也没有多少自我发展的机会。
