Q: Please say something except your self-introduction.
A: You mean about my self-introduction?
(I think he has some Arabian Accent. Is he from Arabian countries?
No, I am pretty sure he is definitely a Chinese, one of my people.)
Q: No, anything except your self-introduction.
A: Oh, sorry. Can I speak something about my job criteria?
Q: Criteria? What is criteria? What does that mean?
A: It means the standards or expectations when I'm looking for a job.
Q: Ok. Say something about that.
A: All right. First, I wanna know what I could learn from the job. That
means...
(He was communicating with other staff of Huawei about something, I
thought he might be busying in something so I stopped and waited for
him to finish.)
Q: Please go on. I'm listening.
A: OK, that means what my future would be if I took the job...
(He's still talking to other in Chinese, so I stopped again.)
Q: Please go on.
A: OK. The second is that I wanna know if it is something that I really
want, that means ... that means if I could totally devote myself in
the job... , the third is ... if I am qualified for the job...
(I stopped several times because he talked to two other guys and answered
a phonecall to his cell during the conversation.)
Q: I've noticed on your resume that you worked in ###(a company's name) for
only 4 months, why did you quit?
A: Well, I must say...(I was interrupted because he's talking to another guy
again.) I must say that I was too young and not so mutural at that time.
I think I was not well prepared to begin my professional career in my
heart...(He answered another phonecall)
Q: How old were you at that time?
A: 22.
Q: You're 22, and you said you're not matural?
A: I think sometimes maturaty is not related only to the age...
(He answered his cell again, but this time he stepped forward to the window.
The call lasted about 5 minutes. I was still waiting, and then he came back.)
A: ...(I was about to continue but I was interrupted again.)
Q: Mr. Zhang, you must know Huawei is a international company, and it's products
are sold in international, it's international. (I think 'Huawei is an
internationalized company' would be good alternative to the three sentences
he just said.)So the English is very important to our employees, but your
english does not reach to our requirements. So, I think you're not appropriate
for our company.
A: OK. So can I take my resume back? (Well, now I must admit that I'm still not
matural enough.)
Q: OK.
A: Thank you.
(I have to admit again that I'm still not matural enough, but I do wanna ask
him if he knew about that respect to each other is a basic principle in social
relationships.)
