求职英语：轻松进外企 30谈仪表仪容

Jason: Hello, Grace. That's a beautiful skirt you have on. Where are you going?

Grace: I am going to attend an interview.

Jason: What kind of job are you applying for?

Grace: My major is English. Of course I'll apply for English teacher.

Jason: Oh. That dress doesn't exactly match the job.

Grace: Why? You said my skirt was beautiful just now.

Jason: Yes, your skirt is really beautiful, but you are applying for a teaching position. You see, your skirt is very short, and your make up is too thick. What's more, the color of your lipstick¹ doesn't match your skin. As a teacher, you should be a little more sedate².

Grace: Then what should I do?

Jason: Some of my friends tell me that being a teacher, the most important is the beauty of mind. You shouldn't pay too much attention to your appearance. You should appear frugal³ and prudent⁴. Your experience and knowledge will gain the appreciation⁵ of your interviewer.

杰森：嗨，格丽斯，你穿着这么漂亮的裙子去哪里啊？

格丽斯：我正打算去参加面试呢。

杰森：你应聘的是什么工作啊？

格丽斯：我的专业是英语，我当然是要去应聘英语教师了。

杰森：天啊，你的着装与你的工作不相符啊！

格丽斯：为什么呢？你刚才不是说我的裙子漂亮吗？

杰森：你的裙子的确很漂亮，但你应聘的是教师啊！你看看，你的裙子太短了，而且你的妆化得太浓。还有，你的口红的颜色与你的肤色不配。作为教师，你应该更稳重一些。

格丽斯：那我该怎么办呢？

杰森：我的朋友告诉我，作为一名教师，最重要的是心灵美，你不应太注意你的外表。但你也应当保持节俭和整洁的风格。你的经验和知识会赢得面试官的赞赏的。
