My name's John Baldwin, and I'm the chairman of this city's LBG, the local business group. In the past few months, we've been delighted to welcome many different nationalities with impressive language skills who have arrived to settle here in Markstone. The LBG has a list of the names and addresses of various businesses in this area, and we want to target those of you with specialist backgrounds. At the moment, we're spoiled for radiologists, but we're faced with a severe shortage of pharmacists. In fact, if you visit any of the job centers in this city or go online, you'll see advertisements for several vacancies in this field. Though until recently, it was psychologists who were in short supply. So bearing all this in mind, we have advice which I hope you'll find useful. 00:01:05,200 Many of you are extremely well qualified. However, most professional job applicants need to submit their original diplomas or certificates, whatever their background. If you haven't brought these with you, then get them sent to you as soon as possible. What's more, you will need a signature and stamp on the documents from someone in authority at the institution where you took the examinations. Also, once in your possession, make photocopies of them for safekeeping. 00:01:39,200 Now, when you're submitting a job application to a potential employer, we suggest you post your application by recorded delivery just in case things go astray. It costs a bit extra, but the receipt gives you peace of mind. It's not advisable to hand things in personally. And remember, most employers will require an email address. Markstone has plenty of Internet cafes, so use these facilities if necessary. 00:02:09,460 The LBG is keen to compile as much useful information as possible based on your experience. So my colleagues and I will be better prepared to support people in dealing with these formalities than we have been in the past. We've designed a register, and although it's not compulsory, we'd like you to add your name, address, and profession to this register before you leave today. I'll be around to answer any questions. 00:02:40,900 Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions fifteen to twenty. 00:03:17,360 Now listen and answer questions fifteen to twenty. 00:03:24,700 Finally, the LBG's map is specifically targeted at people like yourselves. This was enclosed with your invitation to today's meeting. We are sitting in LBG's office marked at the bottom left-hand side of your map. It's on one side of the city square, which has a fountain in the middle. On the north side of the square is Markstone's pedestrian thoroughfare, which is completely traffic free. 00:03:54,780 If you need a translation service, you'll find it in the large building accessed directly from the pedestrian thoroughfare to the west of Broad Street. 00:04:05,860 Okay. Now to find the bank, walk along Broad Street from the pedestrian thoroughfare, keeping the park on your right, and you'll find it on the corner with Markstone Avenue. 00:04:18,820 If you need to discuss money at any stage, even a small loan, then I recommend talking to the manager, who is extremely helpful. 00:04:27,800 Now, to find the community center, turn right at the north end of Broad Street into Markstone Avenue, and in the same block as the park, you'll see it situated between two other buildings. You'll find advice on housing and health services, and it's open from ten till five daily. 00:04:49,500 If you need to travel outside the city for a job interview, look for the Dial-A-Car kiosk. It's on the north side of Markstone Avenue, opposite the junction with New Road. It's equipped with a free telephone connection to Markstone's Dial-A-Car service. The company is offering half-price fares on all journeys if you explain that you are on our LBG register. That's a very generous discount. 00:05:18,830 The post office is on New Road, roughly halfway between Markstone Avenue and the pedestrian thoroughfare. 00:05:26,860 Finally, there's a modest cafe called Welcome. It's run by the LBG and is open each evening. If you start from the city square and keep on walking along the pedestrian thoroughfare in an easterly direction, it's just after the junction with New Road.
