But I also saw people using the Internet and figuredit was going to be important eventually for anyonein the brokerage business.

但是我看到人们使用互联网，觉得互联网将在经纪人生意上大有作为，

So I started evangelizing that at Schwab.

and thought that I should do something, too.

So in 1995，I began to e-mail a bunch of friends about art and technical events in SanFrancisco.

因此，在1995年，我开始通过电子邮件向朋友们传达旧金山地区艺术展和科技活动的消息，

Over the months that followed, people kept asking if I could add the occasional job posting andlistings for things to sell, too.

几个月后，人们问我可不可以加点临时职位发布，或者求购消息，

Then I said, “Let’s add apartment listings, too.”

于是我说，干脆连房屋租赁消息也加上算了，

It was all done through a very simple E-mail, a cc: list.

那些都是通过简单的电子邮件抄送列表进行的。

This is the sort of pattern we still have today

现在我们依然保持着这种形式

—people suggest stuff to us, we do what makes sense and then we ask for more feedback.

人们向我们提出建议，我们将一些行得通的付之于行动，然后寻求更多的反馈信息。

I left Schwab around the same time I began Craigslist.

Then I had to use a listserve.

我不得不使用列表服务，

I was going to call it SF Events, since it was still mostly events,

我准备叫它SF事件，因为它毕竟还是一个事件，

but friends told me that they already called it Craigslist,

that I had created a brand unintentionally and that I should keep calling it that

A: I’m a reporter from XX Daily, as you know, the job market is getting tougher and tougher now, but you have got a good position in Microsoft China when facing a lost of competitors with several years working experience. How do you think an interview’s importance?

B: Sure. As a well-known fact, the "job for life" is gone - the world is changing so fast, which results in the job market getting increasingly competitive. Most people will need to change jobs at least every few years or so. So you can't get hired without shining at the interview. And as well, your earnings will be dictated by how well you perform!

A: But in fact, how to do well in an interview seems a quite difficult thing for a lot fresh graduates. Then what’s your open sesame(诀窍) for your own success?

B: Well, doing well in an interview can be easy if you understand how to prepare and know what to expect! It's crucial to prepare properly for a job before the interview.

A: That’s true. Precautions avert perils. Could you please explain it in detail?

B: Yeah, of course. First of all, you should feel supremely confident in all situations! As you know, there’s no recruiter would like to hire a person without confidence when facing problems. Second, you should prepare for answering frequently-asked questions. The last but it’s no less important, you’d have to train yourself what to say to the tricky questions.

A: Right, I can’t agree with you more. But you know, a lot of job-seeker who can’t make it finally even they think they’ve performed well in an interview, do you think what the root cause is?

B: Interview success is not just about knowing the questions. It's also about what is behind the question. For example, what do you think they are getting at when they say: "Tell me about a typical week?" Are they just interested in what you do, or is there something else behind the question? Surely they want to know something about you characters. You should convince them that you’re a responsible person instead of your carelessness.

A: Terrific, that’s exactly true. Thank you very much for your kindness to share your valuable experience in job-seeking. But for the sake of our interview time, I’d have to give it to and end now. After all, I suppose all the readers will appreciate for your help. Wish you a brilliant future in Microsoft!

B: I’m very glad to do that and you’re welcome. After all, thank you for your best wishes.
