托德：特拉維斯，你上的是法學(xué)院。

Travis: Yes, I'm in law school.

特拉維斯：對(duì)，我是一名法學(xué)院的學(xué)生。

Todd: Normally, how do you get a job after you finish law school?

托德：一般來(lái)說(shuō)，你從法學(xué)院畢業(yè)以后要怎么找工作呢?

Travis: Well, the law school that I'm at is considered to be a top-tier law school, and so my law school has a lot of power to get companies to actually come to my law school, and interview with students at the school, and the way my law school does it is every year, in the summer, the last week of summer before school starts, they get about 700 firms to come for about one week and interview students on campus and it's called early interview week so during this early interview week, basically the school rents out an entire hotel and every firm will be there for about one day, so, it's like every day you have about 150, 200 firms on any particular day. Each with their own room in the hotel, and so the students will wait in a common area and when it's their time to interview they'll go to a hotel room and knock on the door and go inside and interview with that firm and they'll get maybe 20 or 30 minutes with that firm, and then afterwards if the firm likes them the firm might actually invite them to go to lunch or to go to a dinner that night and they'll be selected so maybe every day, a firm will interview as many as 50 candidates, but only invite maybe 5 or 6 of them to go out to dinner with them that night, so this lasts about 4 or 5 days, and at the end of that, other than being really tired, hopefully you've gotten a couple of job offers, well not job offers, but basically an offer to come back to a second interview, which will hopefully, eventually lead to a job offer. So, for the students it's quite difficult. Over the course of a week some students will interview with as many as 25 firms, over a four or five day period, so they can be interviewing anywhere from five to as many as ten firms in a single day. So if you're interviewing 10 firms in a singe day, each 30 minutes long, you're going to be there a long time. At least 5 or 6 hours of straight interviewing, going from one room to the next room to the next room, to the next room to interview with a firm.

特拉維斯：嗯，我念的法學(xué)院被認(rèn)為是一流的法學(xué)院，我們學(xué)院的力量很大，能讓許多公司來(lái)學(xué)院招聘，學(xué)生可以在學(xué)校里進(jìn)行面試，我們學(xué)院每年都會(huì)有這種招聘活動(dòng)，通常是在夏季，夏季學(xué)校開(kāi)學(xué)前的最后一個(gè)禮拜，一周內(nèi)大約會(huì)有700家公司來(lái)學(xué)校面試，這被稱(chēng)為提前面試周，所以在提前面試周，學(xué)校會(huì)出租整間旅館，每家公司都會(huì)在那里待上一天的時(shí)間，這意味著每天大約有150到200家公司。每家公司都在旅館內(nèi)擁有各自的房間，學(xué)生會(huì)在公共區(qū)域里等待，輪到他們進(jìn)行面試時(shí)，就走到旅館房間前敲下門(mén)，然后進(jìn)去進(jìn)行面試，面試大概會(huì)進(jìn)行20到30分鐘的時(shí)間，之后如果那家公司對(duì)他們感興趣，那公司可能會(huì)邀請(qǐng)他們?nèi)コ晕绮突蚴浅酝聿?，這樣他們面試成功的可能性就非常大，每家公司大概一天最多面試50名學(xué)生，不過(guò)可能只會(huì)邀請(qǐng)5至6名學(xué)生去吃晚餐，這種面試會(huì)持續(xù)4到5天的時(shí)間，最后，除了會(huì)感到非常累以外，你可能還會(huì)收到一些工作邀請(qǐng)，嗯，不能說(shuō)是工作邀請(qǐng)，應(yīng)該是邀請(qǐng)你去進(jìn)行第二輪面試，這很有可能最終會(huì)成為工作邀請(qǐng)。所以，對(duì)學(xué)生來(lái)說(shuō)這非常難。在一周的時(shí)間內(nèi)，一些學(xué)生最多會(huì)面試25家公司，就在4到5天的時(shí)間里，所以他們一天最多會(huì)面試5到10家公司。所以如果你一天面試10家公司，每次30分鐘，那你就要在那里待很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間。至少是5到6個(gè)小時(shí)連續(xù)不斷的面試進(jìn)程，從一個(gè)房間到另一個(gè)房間再到另一個(gè)房間，不停地進(jìn)行面試。

Todd: So it's pretty exhausting.

托德：這真令人疲憊不堪。

Travis: It's really exhausting and I'm not looking forward to it at all.

特拉維斯：真的非常累人，我一點(diǎn)兒也不期待去進(jìn)行面試。
