## 题目原文

00:00:00,640 
 Hello. I'm interested in applying for the flight attendant position that was advertised. Could you provide me with information about the application process? 
 00:00:11,060 
 Certainly. To apply, you'll need to email your CV and a cover letter to Sarah Meehan. I spell her family name for you: M-E-E-H-A-N. She's responsible for selecting and hiring candidates. 
 00:00:25,500 
 What is her job title? 
 00:00:27,540 
 She's a senior manager in the recruitment department. 
 00:00:30,600 
 Thank you for letting me know. Can you tell me more about the job itself? What are the main responsibilities? 
 00:00:37,340 
 Sure. While the new opening doesn't involve frequent long-distance flights, there may be occasional overnight flights. This means you'll need to work night shifts. As a flight attendant, your main responsibilities will include providing excellent customer service, ensuring passenger safety, and assisting with any in-flight needs. 
 00:00:58,120 
 I see. Are there any specific qualifications or skills required for this position? 
 00:01:04,300 
 Yes. Proficiency in English is essential. Since we have passengers from all over the world, you'll need to be able to communicate effectively in this international language. Additionally, you should be adept at math, so you can handle tasks that require calculations such as passenger count. 
 00:01:23,100 
 I studied relevant subjects at university, so I should be able to meet those requirements. By the way, are there any physical requirements? 
 00:01:33,640 
 Yes. Candidates should be able to swim and have good vision, including the ability to differentiate between colors. Visual inspections of the aircraft, such as checking for damage or irregularities, monitoring cabin conditions, and ensuring proper functioning of safety equipment are part of the job. 
 00:01:53,280 
 That makes sense. I have previous experience working in a cafe. Will that give me a competitive advantage? 
 00:02:00,520 
 Absolutely. Previous experience in customer service can be a valuable asset. Providing customers with different forms of assistance demonstrates your communication skills and understanding of important service sector values such as patience and empathy. 
 00:02:17,98 
 I was also involved in daily food preparation in this job. 
 00:02:22,120 
 They will definitely appreciate that. It shows that you have relevant skills and can handle the job's demands. 
 00:02:28,500 
 Is there anything else I should keep in mind? 
 00:02:31,500 
 Yes. Demonstrating cultural awareness is also important. Our airline values diversity and wants flight attendants who can interact effectively with passengers from different backgrounds, being familiar with their customs and values. 
 00:02:46,600 
 That's good to know. When is the application deadline? I need to prepare my documents accordingly. 
 00:02:53,740 
 It's October 29th. We have several attendants retiring on November 6th, so we're looking to fill the positions as soon as possible. 
 00:03:01,520 
 Okay. I'll make sure to submit my application before the deadline. Lastly, is there a probationary period for this position? 
 00:03:12,280 
 Yes. The probationary period is 6 months. During this time, your performance and suitability for the role will be assessed. It's longer than the probationary period I had when I joined this company. We only had three months to showcase our skills and capabilities. 
 00:03:29,440 
 Thank you so much for providing all this information. I'll make sure to submit my application soon.
