WEEK

13 PEOPLE’S ACHIEVEMENTS

Goal: Talk about


people’s
achievements
A job interview is a common step in getting a job in most countries, although the
form of the interview may differ.
Candidates may be interviewed one at the time or in a group. They may speak with
only one interviewer or with a whole group of them.
There is also difference in the kind of questions they are asked. In the USA,
for example, there are laws against job discrimination by age, religion, and
marital status, so interviewers are not allowed to ask questions like Are you
married?
The present perfect is commonly used when listing
professional experience.
Examples:
•I have published three articles.
•I have taught introductory calculus and I have supervised
interns.
•I have studied at a private university.
•I have shortened the number of claims by 20%.
•I have developed a customer service data system.

Present perfect vs. Simple past tense
The present perfect tense describes events at any time in the past that
have a connection with the present.
I’ve already graduated from university (so now I have my degree).
I’ve been to Mexico four times (so I know something about the
country).
The simple past describes a completed action at a specific time.
I graduated from university in 2012. I went to China last summer.
