**Practica tu inglés con una entrevista de trabajo.** Worksheet: Complete the missing information. Ravee: Hi, thanks for coming in today. How are you? Cesar: I’m doing great, thanks for asking. Ravee: Fantastic. I was \_**taking**\_ a look at your LinkedIn profile and I would like to ask you a few questions to get this interview \_**started**\_. Cesar: Absolutely! Ravee: Can you tell me about your previous work experience? Cesar: Sure! In my last job as a Social Media Content Creator in CodeCrush, I \_**gained**\_ extensive experience in creating engaging and high-quality content for various social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube. \_By\_ the time I left the company, I \_have\_ \_**grown**\_ the company's social media following by 50% and had significantly increased engagement on all platforms. Before I joined CodeCrush, I \_**had**\_ \_**worked**\_ as a freelancer, developing Social Media campaigns for a wide variety of industries like fashion, travel, food and beverage. Before I joined Platzi, I \_**have**\_ already \_honed\_ my skills in creating visually appealing graphics and writing copy that resonated with different target audiences. Ravee: Great! Now… Can you walk me through a project you recently worked on and your role in that project? Cesar: Yes… Recently, I was \_given\_ the opportunity to work on one of the biggest social media campaigns to promote \_**some**\_ of the \_**new**\_\_ courses in CodeCrush. My role in the project was to create engaging and visually appealing content that would promote the courses and drive traffic to the site. I was responsible for creating a social media content calendar, developing creative briefs for the graphic designers and photographers, and producing content for Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. As part of the project, I worked closely with the marketing team to ensure that the campaign's messaging was consistent and aligned with the brand's values. Overall, I am proud to say that the campaign was a huge success, generating over 1 million organic impressions and increasing the brand's social media following by 20%. Ravee: Amazing! Could you tell me about something you would \_**have**\_ \_**done**\_\_\_ differently in your previous job? Cesar: Yes… If I \_**have**\_ \_**known**\_\_ then what I know now, I would \_**have**\_ \_**approached**\_ my work differently in certain situations. For example, there was one project where I was supposed to collaborate with a team of graphic designers, but I \_**ended**\_ \_up\_ taking on too much of the workload myself. The project took longer than it was \_supposed\_ to and the end result wasn't as polished as it could have been. Looking back on that experience, I realize that I \_**should**\_ \_**have**\_ \_communicated\_ more clearly with the designers and established more defined roles and responsibilities at the beginning of the project. If I \_**had**\_ \_**done**\_ that, we would have worked more efficiently and produced better quality work in a shorter amount of time. \_**Due**\_ to this experience and moving forward, I've learned the importance of delegation and clear communication, and I know that I can apply those lessons to future projects to ensure their success Ravee: Thank you. Let’s move on! Have you ever \_**convinced**\_ someone to change their mind or do something they didn't want to do? Cesar: Yes, I have. For example, I \_**got**\_ my team members \_**to**\_ use a new social media platform that they were initially hesitant about. I let them know how important it was for the growth of our company, and I convinced them to try it out. As a result, we were able to reach a new audience and increase our social media following. Ravee: Thank you, Cesar. That's all the questions we have for you today. Do you have any questions for me? Cesar: Yes, I \_**wonder**\_ if you could tell me what the next steps are. Are any other interviews or assessments I should complete? Ravee: Thank you for your question. We plan to make a decision within the next two weeks, and we will notify all candidates via email. There may be a final interview or assessment stage for the top candidates, but we will inform you if you progress to that stage. Cesar: Perfect. Thank you for your time today!

I had three wrong questions.

I felt so motivated with this interview, because I really want to achieve that level of fluency and comprehension of the language, so it is really nice to think about all the things I'll learn throughout this course.
