Which factor is most crucial when looking for a new job?

Rank the following points in terms of importance and then discuss your

reasons: opportunities for promotion or advancement, working hours, va-

cation days, pension plan, interest level, salary, benefits such as health and life insurance, sick or maternity leave.

Listen to the conversation and answer the questions.

JOB HUNTING K e l l y. So, have you found a job yet?

J o s h. No, but, I have a few leads, so things are looking up. K e l l y. But isn’t that what you always say?

J o s h. Well… uh… this time is different.

K e l l y. What are you looking for this time, then?

J o s h. Actually, I want to work for a Web hosting company. K e l l y. What would you do there?

J o s h. Well, in a nut shell, Web hosting companies provide space for people to store and run their Websites. Does it sound like I know what I’m talking about?

K e l l y. Oh, yeah, sort of.

J o s h. Well, and then, sort of? Well, they allow people to run their Web

sites without having to buy and maintain their own servers, and I’d like to work in technical support, you know, helping customers resolve computer-

related problems with their sites. And you know I’m a good communicator.

K e l l y. So, how’s the pay for that kind of job?

J o s h. Well, most people l know start out with a very reasonable sa- lary; you can earn pay increases depending on your performance.

K e l l y. So, what about benefits?

J o s h. Oh, the benefits are pretty good. They provide health insurance, two weeks (of) paid vacation a year, and opportunities for advancement. And in the end, I’d like to work in a management position. You know, sit- ting back, enjoying the view out of the twentieth-story window of the office building. Something like that.

K e l l y. Well, is there any long-term job security in a job like that?

J o s h. Uhh. That’s hard to tell. I mean, the Internet is booming, and these kinds of companies are sprouting up everywhere, which is a good thing, but just like the dot-com era, you never know how long things will last.

K e l l y. Well, have you ever thought about going back to school to im- prove your job skills?

J o s h. Wait, wait. What are you suggesting?

K e l l y. Well, you know, more training might help you land a better job. J o s h. Wh… wh… Are you trying to say something about my current

job? I mean, is there something going on here? I mean, what are you saying?

K e l l y. You know, you did drop out of college.
