Latihan TOEFL Listening 7: Career Center Advice

Ini transkrip percakapan atau kuliah untuk latihan listening. Coba pahami isinya, lalu jawab 10 soal di bawah.

Student: Hi, I have an internship interview next week and I wanted to see if someone could review my resume beforehand.

Advisor: Of course, I can take a look right now if you have a few minutes, or you can drop it off and I'll email feedback by tomorrow.

Student: I have some time now, that would be great.

Advisor: Okay, looking at this... overall it's solid, but I'd suggest moving your project experience above your part-time job, since it's more relevant to the internship you're applying for. Also, try quantifying your achievements where you can — instead of 'helped organize an event,' something like 'helped organize an event attended by 200 people.'

Student: That makes sense. Should I bring a printed copy to the interview too?

Advisor: It's not required, but it can be a nice touch, especially if the interviewer wants to reference specific details during the conversation.
