A 王總,明天上午您的安排是面試項目經理。

Wáng Zǒng, míngtiān shàngwǔ nín de ānpái shì miànshì xiàngmù jīnglǐ.

Mr. Wang, tomorrow afternoon we have arranged for you to conducts an interview for a project manager.

B 好,有你覺得合適的人選嗎?

hǎo, yǒu nǐ juéde héshì de rénxuǎn ma?

OK. Are there any candidates you feel are suitable?

A 我覺得有一個人比較適合。

wǒ juéde yǒu yī ge rén bǐjiào shìhé.

I think there is one person that is a good fit.

B 說說他的具體情況。

shuōshuō tā de jùtǐ qíngkuàng.

Tell me about his particular situation.

A 他是美國人,專業是市場營銷,在中國工作生活了4年多,之前在一家法國公司做銷售。有幾個成功的銷售案例,比如.....

tā shì Měiguórén, zhuānyè shì shìchǎng yíngxiāo, zài Zhōngguó gōngzuò shēnghuó le sì nián duō, zhīqián zài yī jiā Fǎguó gōngsī zuò xiāoshòu. yǒu jǐ ge chénggōng de xiāoshòu ànlì, bǐrú......

He is American, and he specializes in marketing. He has lived and worked in China for over four years, and was previously doing sales at a French company. He's been involved in some successful marketing campaigns, for example...

B 這個背景很好。中文應該不錯吧。

zhè ge bèijǐng hěn hǎo. Zhōngwén yīnggāi bùcuò ba.

His background is good. His Chinese should be pretty good.

A 應該是,他會說法語、英語、漢語和西班牙語。

yīnggāi shì, tā huì shuō Fǎyǔ, Yīngyǔ, Hànyǔ hé Xībānyáyǔ.

It should be. He speaks French, English, Chinese, and Spanish.

B 好,我們這個項目要開發西方國家的客戶,語言能力很重要。

hǎo, wǒmen zhè ge xiàngmù yào kāifā xīfāng guójiā de kèhù, yǔyán nénglì hěn zhòngyào.

Good, we want to develop this project with customers in western countries, so linguistic competence is very important.

A 他還熟悉電子商務,可以有效地開展網絡營銷。

tā hái shúxī diànzǐ shāngwù, kěyǐ yǒuxiào de kāizhǎn wǎngluò yíngxiāo.

He is also familiar with E-commerce, so he can effectively launch our internet sales.

B 我們正需要這方面的人才。

wǒmen zhèng xūyào zhè fāngmiàn de réncái.

We need just such a person with these kinds of qualifications.

A 不過他以前沒做過銷售項目經理。

bùguò tā yǐqián méi zuò guo xiāoshòu xiàngmù jīnglǐ.

However, he has never been a marketing project manager.

B 項目管理經驗不夠豐富,但應該適應能力比較強。在外國會碰到很多意想不到的困難。

xiàngmù guǎnlǐ jīngyàn bùgòu fēngfù, dàn yīnggāi shìyìng nénglì bǐjiào qiáng. zài wàiguó huì pèngdào hěn duō yìxiǎng bu dào de kùnnan.

His project managing experience is lacking, but his ability to adapt ought to be relatively strong. Living abroad like this one will encounter many unexpected difficulties.

A 他還說喜歡挑戰,可以接受加班和出差。

tā hái shuō xǐhuan tiǎozhàn, kěyǐ jiēshòu jiābān hé chūchāi.

He also said he likes a challenge, and has no problem with working overtime and going on business trips.

B 做銷售需要到處跑。應酬很重要。會喝酒、唱歌、打高爾夫也很有用。

zuò xiāoshòu xūyào dàochù pǎo. yìngchou hěn zhòngyào. huì hējiǔ, chànggē, dǎ gāoěrfū yě hěn yǒuyòng.

Doing marketing requires one to go all over the place. People skills are very important. Drinking, singing, and playing golf are also very useful.

A 他喜歡打棒球和橄欖球,還有游泳。

tā xǐhuan dǎ bàngqiú hé gǎnlǎnqiú, háiyǒu yóuyǒng.

He enjoys playing baseball and football, and also like to swim.

B 棒球和橄欖球我們國家打的人少。他的期望薪酬是多少?

bàngqiú hé gǎnlǎnqiú wǒmen guójiā dǎ de rén shǎo. tā de qīwàng xīnchóu shì duōshǎo?

Not many people play baseball and football in this country. What kind of salary is he expecting?

A 他要求的底薪稍高於我們的預算。

tā yāoqiú de dǐxīn shāo gāoyú wǒmen de yùsuàn.

He is requesting a base pay slightly over our budget.

B 這個可以再商量,再說銷售主要看提成。敢於開高工資也是自信的表現。主要是看他有沒有獨當一面的能力,還有溝通能力,個人魅力什麼的。

zhè ge kěyǐ zài shāngliang, zàishuō xiāoshòu zhǔyào kàn tíchéng. gǎnyú kāi gāo gōngzī yě shì zìxìn de biǎoxiàn. zhǔyào shì kàn tā yǒu méiyǒu dúdāngyīmiàn de nénglì, háiyǒu gōutōng nénglì, gèrén mèilì shénme de.

This can be discussed further; besides, the commission from sales is the major part. Being bold enough to state such a high salary is a sign of confidence. The most important thing is that he has the ability to take charge of a department, as well as communication skills and charisma.

A 嗯。我在簡歷上寫明瞭您想進一步瞭解的情況。明天上午11點面試,他來了我再叫您。

ng4. wǒ zài jiǎnlì shang xiěmíng le nín xiǎng jìnyībù liǎojiě de qíngkuàng. míngtiānshàngwǔ shí yī diǎn miànshì, tā lái le wǒ zài jiào nín.

Hmm. I have written down on his resume some more things you need to find out about. He is coming to interview tomorrow morning at 11:00am. When he arrives, I'll let you know.

B 好。

hǎo.

OK.
