A magical evening at Opera ! Hi, This evening, I'm going to Opera Garnier to see a ballet. I'm so happy and excited because I love ballet, Opera Garnier is one of my favourit monument in Paris and I'll meet Benjamin Millepied (I'm a fan). The Opera Garnier is a really beautiful monument. I see it each time I go to the cinema because my bus stop is just in front of this building. It's particulary magical in the night because the facade is illuminated. I like ballet. I practiced it during 12 years. I had started when I was 6 years old, and I stopped when I was 18 years old. I restarted on last year. It's difficult but the ambiancy is good in my class and the instructor is really cool.

About Paris Hi all, I come from Nantes, but I live in Paris for 10 years ago because of my work. I like Paris, it's a beautiful and very dynamic city who never sleep. There is always something to do : shopping, exhibition, concert, restaurant, cinema, party... When I got in Paris, I lived 1 years in the 13 arrondissement of Paris, 1 year in the 15 arrondissement of Paris and 4 years in the 18th arrondissement. Now, I live in the 17th arrondissement. This four arrondissements are very differents. My favourit is the 17th arrondissement because I live near to a big park. It's useful because I like running. I have a little supermarket just in front of my building and several nice restaurants and bars/pubs. A train station, several bus stops and a metro station are at 5 minutes by wolk from my building. I live at 20 minutes by walk of my office. I walking every day to go and return, it's more calm than transportations

Do you know a good website or video to prepare a job interview in English ?

Hello !

 

I'm French. Last week, I was contacted by a recruiter by email for a great job in communication. The job is based in Paris, but the candidate has to speak English well.

 

The recruiter is a native English speaker and doesn't speak French. I've spoke briefly by phone with her to book an appointment for a job interview. This exchange was very difficult for me because I had not touched English for almost 3 months !

 

I'm going to attend the job interview in English on next week. I'm stressed. I need to prepare this meeting. 

- Do you know a good website or video to prepare or simulate a job interview in English ?

- Would someone will be free today (morning, afternoon or evening), on Tuesday September 22 (evening) or on Wednesday September 23 (morning or afternoon) for a Skype call with me ?

 

Thanks for your help !!

About September Hi don't know if it's the same for you, but September, in particular, is ever a very busy month for me. I have to deliver the communications plan and budget to my manager and the Group for validating. The company participate for several trade-shows and I have to prepare all communications supports. This year is particularly complicated for me because my colleague is on maternity leave and she's not replaced. I'm alone for two jobs. I have to prepare my annual evaluation and thinking to my objectives for the next year. As each years, we organize breakfasts and aperitives with my colleague in different services to celebrate our back at the office and to speak about our holidays. September is also a busy month in my personal life. I have to check my health with the dentist and with my doctor (to obtain a medical agreement for sport). At the begin of the month, I have to subscribe to the ballet academy and the gym club. And, I'm invited in several birthdays parties because 3 of my good friends were born in September. I start to plan transportation for Christmas holidays with my family and the New year party's with my friends.

About my good resolutions for 2015 In France, we have a tradition. At the end of the year, we look back on our life and we identify what we could do to become a better person. I started to think about that. I'm very proud about all efforts that I have tried this year and will continue to try to energize my life. I start again sport, once a week (minimum) and I walk to my office every day (except when it rains). I watch less TV and I read more (books and magazines). My new resolutions fo 2015 could be : - To go home more often to visit my parents and my friends, - To pass an english exam like TOIC or TOEFL, - To obtain a new job opportunities in my actual company or to find a new job

My very busy next weekend I will be very busy at the end of this week. Tomorrow evening, I'll invite my boyfriend to the restaurant for his birthday. This morning, I booked at a french gastronomic restaurant. Hope he will like it. Food critics are very positives about the cook. On Saturday morning, I'll help one of my friend to move house. I'm a little bit sad, because she was my neighbour for 2 years ago. On Saturday afternoon, I'll go to the hairdresser. I'll get cut my hair and try a new brazilian hair care. After that, I'll take a drink with my friends. And, Saturday night, I'll be go to the cinema with my boyfriend. Sunday morning, if the weather is nice, I'll do some walk in the park because I love the colours of this season: red, yellow, green and brown of all the leaves. And, on Sunday afternoon, I'll go to the Maison Européenne de la Photographie. Situated in the historic heart of the capital, this museum is dedicated to photography and contemporary creation.
