You should be a model of good grooming for your clients because you are a member of the beauty industry. Your clients expect you to look your best. You should be pleasant to be around. You must be clean and pleasant-smelling so clients will not object to having you touch them while you perform nail services. They should find it pleasant to sit across from you while you perform nail services.

1. Be clean and fresh. Bathe or shower daily and use an effec­tive deodorant.

Text A. Job search

1. Read and translate the text.

Job search is a long process, which needs lots of time and effort. You can't start it without a resume. You present the most important information about yourself in it: your background, your work experience, skills and special knowledge. You should write your objective too, that is what position you are aim­ing at.

With your resume drawn you start direct re­search. You study business magazines and newspa­pers and look for the companies that regularly hire in your field. You can send your resume to these companies. Employment and recruitment agencies are aimed at assisting you in finding a job.

State employment agencies are funded by state labour departments. The most effective way to use their services is to visit the local office.

Only employment agencies and some recruitment agencies will actively market you to a large number of companies. The most part of recruitment agencies only present the credentials on the existing position.

It is useful to visit job fairs and career days, ask your family, relatives, friends, neighbours and ac­quaintances to help you in job search.

You can use web pages on Internet, such as www.jobs.ru or www.hro. ru and other special web sites.

Interview is an important part in your job search. It is important to make a good impression and to wear proper clothes. Make sure your shoes are clean, well polished and in good condition. Don't fid­dle with your hair, your hands or your clothes, don't cross the arms. Sit up straight. Keep long hair under control, don't wear too much jewelry. Try to keep eye contact with the key person in the meeting. It is not proper to ask about the salary at the first inter­view or criticise your former boss or company. It is not recommended to discuss personal or financial problems with the representative of the company. It is important to assure the company representatives that you are the right person for the position.

If you are offered a position, you can negotiate the offer and ask about your salary. As you can see, the process of job search is rather difficult, but it can be a rewarding too if you get the position which you have been dreaming about.

2. Note the vocabulary:

objective — цель

to draw — составлять (документ)

credentials — документы

to fiddle — вертеть в руках, играть

representative — представитель

to assure — заверить

to negotiate — вести переговоры

rewarding —стоящий, полезный

3. Answer the questions:

1. What have you to start job search with?

2. What kind of information should you present in the resume?

3. What can you help in finding a job?

4. If you are invited to an interview how to make a good impression on the interviewers?

5. When is it proper to ask about the salary?

6. How would you assure the company representatives that you are the right person for the position?
