a shortlistимениof people who will be called for a second interview. After this the final

decision will be made and the strongest candidate will be offered the job. There may then be a short period of negotiations over salary, working conditions, etc. and the chosen candidate will either take up (=accept) or turn down (=refuse) the job offer.

ГУМРФAssessment centers

Many people in their early twenties have similar CVs and a similar lack of experience, and a CV plus interview is unlikely to show who is the best person for a job. For these reasons many companies use an assessment centre as part of the selection process. This is typically a full day (or two) and includes social/informal events, information sessions and tests and exercises designed to reveal your potential. The exercises might include a case study, a presentation and/or a group discussion.

What the employer is looking for
In the interview (and at an assessment centre) the employer is usually looking for
three things. First, they want to see evidence of technical skills and background
knowledge required to that particular job. Second, they are looking for business

skills such as ability to achieve targets, meet deadlines and manage costs. Third,
they want evidence of	soft personal skills, such as:
teamworking	communication	motivation
time management	data analysis	decision-making

	имени		LIVING IN THE CITY
	имени
	Living in the city has		both advantages and disadvantages. On the plus side,
ГУМРФusually find a park where you can feed the ducks or just sit on a park bench and

it is often easier to find work, and there is usually a choice of public transport, so you don t need to own a car. Also, there are a lot of interesting things to do and places to see. For example, you can eat in good restaurants, visit museums, and go to the theatre and to concerts. What is more, when you want to relax, you can

read a book. All in all, you never feel bored in the city.

However, for every plus there is a minus. For one thing, you must have a

job, well-paid job, because living in a city is often very expensive. It is particularly difficult to find good, cheap accommodation. What is more, public transport is sometimes crowded and dirty, particularly in the rush hour, and even parks can become very crowded, especially on Sundays. Last of all, despite all crowds, it is still possible to feel very lonely in a city.

			In conclusion, I think that city life can be particularly appealing to young
		However, many people, when they get older, and particularly when they have
		children, often prefer peace and fresh air of the countryside.											.Макарова
