Last week I went to visit Atlantic College, an excellent private college in Wales.
Unusually, it gives people much needed experience of life outside the classroom, as well as
the opportunity to study for their exams. The students, who are aged between 16 and 18 and
come from all over the word, spend the morning studying. In the afternoon they go out and do
a really useful activity, such as helping on the farm, looking after people with learning
difficulties, or checking for pollution in rivers.
One of the great things about Atlantic College students is that they come from many
different social backgrounds and countries. As few can afford the fees of £20,000 over two
years, grants are available.
A quarter of students are British, and many of those can only attend because they receive
government help.
“I really admire the college for trying to encourage international understanding among
young people", as Barbara Molenkamp, a student from the Netherlands, said. ''You learn to
live with people and respect them, even the ones you don't like. During the summer holidays
my mother couldn't believe how much less I argued with my sister. "
To sum up, Atlantic College gives its students an excellent education, using methods
which really seem to work.

Preparation is a key to a successful interview. Does the idea of going to a job interview make
you feel a little nervous? Many people find that it is the hardest part of the employing process. But it
is not really true. The more you prepare and practise, the more comfortable you will feel. You should
find out as much as possible about the company before you go to the interview. Understand the
products that they produce and the services that they provide. It is also good to know who the
customers are and who the major competitors are. “Practice makes perfect”. It will also make you feel
more confident and relaxed. So, practise your answers to common questions. Make a list of questions
to ask, too. Almost all interviewers will ask if you have questions. This is a great opportunity for you
to show your keenness, enthusiasm, and knowledge.
Make a great impression. The interview is your chance to show that you are the best person for
the job. Your application or résumé has already exhibited that you are qualified. Now it is up to you
to show how your skills and experience match this position and this company. The employer will be
looking and listening to determine if you are a good fit. He/she will be looking for a number of
different qualities, in addition to the skills that you possess. To make the best impression, dress
appropriately; express your strengths; arrive early, by about 10-15 minutes; be enthusiastic; shake
hands firmly; be an active listener; sit up straight and maintain eye contact; and ask questions
79
After the interview, follow up with a thank-you note. This is a chance for you to restate your
interest and how you can benefit the company. Your best bet is to try to time it so that the note gets
there before the hiring: decision is made. You should also follow up with a phone call if you do not
hear back from the employer within the specified time.
