Podcast #27 Job Application

Spoken directions:

In this podcast you will first hear a short monolog about a job application and references. References are people who can describe what kind of person you are or what kind of work you have done. After listening to the monolog, you will hear it again, one sentence at a time. Repeat each sentence.  We will do the whole monolog this way three times, so that the language can really plant itself in your brain. The idea is that it will still be there when you want to use it sometime in the future.

Monolog:

I'm filling out an application for a new job.

I'm not sure who to give as a reference.

They usually get in touch with at least one reference.

So you want references to say good things about you.

But a reference on an application shouldn't be just a friend.

References on applications should be people who know how you work.

And the longer a reference has known you, the better.
