面试英语：辞职的原因

Snow: What positions have you held before?
Ben: I have been a salesman. But now, I can do public relations.
Snow: How many places have you worked altogether?
Ben: Three.
Snow: Would you give me a general description of your present job?
Ben: I am in charge of the trading department, handling invoices, shipping bills and computing freight costs.
Snow: What made you decide to change your job?
Peter: I am working in a small company where further promotion is impossible, so I decided to change my job. I'd like to find a job which is more challenging.

Notes：

1. What positions have you held before? 就是“你以前是做什么工作的”。hold a certain position，"做某个职位"。

2. I can do public relations，可以做公关工作。表示“做某种工作”，就在do后面加上职位的名称就可以了。

3. How many places have you worked altogether? 你以前一共在几个地方工作过？也就是问你已经换过几份工作了？

4. Would you give me a general description of your present job? 你能描述你一下你现在的工作吗？也就是想了解一下你现在的工作状况。

5. Ben把自己的工作简单地描述了一下，主要是负责了哪些事情，这是考官最想听到的，不用面面俱到，be in charge of something，负责某事，也可以说be responsible for something.

6. Would you give me a general description of your present job? 那你为什么要辞职呢？Ben回答说现在的公司没有什么晋升的机会了，他希望找一份更加有挑战性的工作。陈述你辞职的原因的时候，只要说出最主要原因就可以了，千万不要把以前公司的所有缺点意义罗列，特别是不要说以前上司和同事的坏话，这样会给考官留下非常不好的印象。
