Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 1 to 7. There are many mistakes that people make when writing their resume (CV) or completing a job application. Here are some of the most common and most serious. The biggest problem is perhaps listing the duties for which you were responsible in a past position, all this tells your potential employers is what you were supposed to do. They do not necessarily know the specific skills you used in executing them, nor do they know what results you achieved - both of which are essential. In short, they won’t know if you were the best, the worst or just average in your position. The more concrete information you can include, the better. As far as possible, provide measurements of what you accomplished. If any innovations you introduced saved the organization money, how much did they save? If you found a way of increasing productivity, by what percentage did you increase it? Writing what you are trying to achieve in life - your objective - is a waste of space. It tells the employer what you are interested in. Do you really think that employers care what you want? No, they are interested in what they want! Instead, use that space for a career summary. A good one is brief - three to four sentences long. A good one will make the person reviewing your application want to read further. Many resumes list “hard” job-specific skills, almost to the exclusion of transferable, or “soft”, skills. However, your ability to negotiate effectively, for example, can be just as important as your technical skills. All information you give should be relevant, so carefully consider the job for which you are applying. If you are applying for a job that is somewhat different than your current job, it is up to you to draw a connection for the resume reviewer, so that they will understand how your skills will fit in their organization. The person who reviews your paperwork will not be a mind reader. If you are modest about the skills you can offer, or the results you have achieved, a resume reader may take what you write literally, and be left with a low opinion of your ability, you need to say exactly how good you are. On the other hand, of course, never stretch the truth or lie. 3.1. What topic does the passage mainly discuss? A. The way how to write the resume for job application. B.

Read the following passage and mark the answer A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions. Motivating employees is easier in a growing organization due to more promotional opportunities, pay rises, and a positive atmosphere. Conversely, shrinking organizations struggle with losing skilled employees and managing low morale, as those who stay worry about job security. Productivity often decreases during downsizing because employees focus on rumors and support rather than work. Management must find ways to motivate staff under these adverse conditions, which can be addressed through the following key points. There is an abundance of evidence to support the motivational benefits that result from carefully matching people to jobs. For example, if the job is running a small business or an autonomous unit within a larger business, high achievers should be sought. However, if the job to be filled is a managerial post in a large bureaucratic organization, a candidate who has a high need for power and a low need for affiliation should be selected. Accordingly, high achievers should not be put into jobs that are inconsistent with their needs. High achievers will do best when the job provides moderately challenging goals and where there is independence and feedback. However, it should be remembered that not everybody is motivated by jobs that are high in independence, variety and responsibility. The literature on goal-setting theory suggests that managers should ensure that all employees have specific goals and receive comments on how well they are doing in those goals. For those with high achievement needs, typically a minority in any organization, the existence of external goals is less important because high achievers are already internally motivated. The next factor to be determined is whether the goals should be assigned by a manager or collectively set in conjunction with the employee. The answer to that depends on perception. (Adapt from IELTS Cambridge 6) 4.1. Which of the following best summarizes in paragraph 2? A. Ensure employees are suited to jobs with high independence, variety, and responsibility to boost motivation and performance. B. Prioritize job variety and responsibility over matching needs and strengths to enhance employee motivation. C.

Ensure employees are suited to their jobs based on their needs and strengths to boost motivation and performance. 4.2.

A. Declining organizations face the loss of skilled workers and low morale, as remaining employees fear for their jobs. B. Declining organizations face the challenge of losing skilled workers and low morale due to job security concerns. C. Dwindling organizations lose inexperienced workers and face low morale due to job security fears. D. Reducing companies lose amateur employees, and morale drops as job security concerns decrease. 4.3.
