🇬🇧 English Corner - Story of the Day

📖 The Job Interview Mistake
Tom arrived 15 minutes early for his job interview. In the waiting room, he struck up a conversation with another candidate. "Nervous?" Tom asked. "Terrified!" she replied. They laughed and shared tips. When his turn came, the interviewer mentioned, "I heard you chatting outside. That's exactly the kind of team spirit we need here." Sometimes, being genuine matters more than rehearsed answers.
📝 Vocabulary:
strike up - (会話を)始める
terrified - とても怖がって
rehearsed - リハーサルした、準備した
💡 Key Phrase: "Strike up a conversation" = 会話を始める(慣用表現)
🤔 Reflection: 面接では準備した答えより、自然体でいることが評価されることも。人間性が見られている。
