What have you learned from your past jobs?
从过去的工作中你学到了什么?
I learned that most employers are looking for problem-solvers.
我了解到,大部分的雇主都在寻找可以解决问题的人才。
Earlier in my career,one of my bosses said,Bring me a solution,not a problem.
我刚参加工作时,有一位上司对我说:你要给我的是解决方法,而不是问题。
He made me realize the boss is not there to solve everyone's problems,that it's our job to solve problems before before they even come to his attention.
他让我了解到,上司不是为了解决下属的问题而存在的,在上司注意到问题之前就将问题解决掉,这才是我们的工作,那也是他们付我薪水的目的。
That's what we're paid for,and I took that very seriously.
我非常认真地讲这句话铭记在心。
Since then,I've always focused on identifying problems and solving them in any situation.
从那时候起,我总是非常专注地找出并解决问题。
I'm glad that I learned that early in my career because my problem-solving approach has been vauled and appreciated by all my past employers.
我所工作过的所有公司都非常赞赏我解决问题的方法,所以,我非常高兴我在职业生涯的初期就能学到这一点。
