Pembahasan

📖 Terjemahan Teks — Percakapan ini adalah wawancara antara seorang pria dan seorang wanita. Pria itu menyatakan terkesan dengan resume wanita tersebut, menekankan bahwa pengalamannya di Global Corp sangat relevan. Wanita itu membalas bahwa dia telah bekerja di sana selama tiga tahun, fokus pada kampanye digital dan analisis pasar, dan yakin keterampilannya sesuai dengan persyaratan.
📝 Alasan Jawaban — Pria itu berkata, "We’re looking for someone who can really drive engagement." yang berarti mereka mencari "seseorang yang benar-benar dapat mendorong keterlibatan." Ini sangat cocok dengan pilihan 3, "Someone who can significantly increase customer interaction." (Seseorang yang dapat secara signifikan meningkatkan interaksi pelanggan.) Frasa 'drive engagement' menyiratkan peningkatan 'interaction'.
💡 Tips Hari Ujian — Dalam Part 3/4, perhatikan baik-baik bagian di mana pembicara secara eksplisit menyebutkan "siapa/apa yang dicari", "saran yang diajukan", atau "langkah selanjutnya". Fokus pada frasa seperti 'X is looking for Y', 'I suggest Z', 'Next, we will...'.
📊 Analisis Opsi Salah — X) Someone with direct experience managing utility bills. — Tidak ada penyebutan langsung mengenai pengelolaan tagihan utilitas dalam percakapan. X) A candidate who is detail-oriented and organized. — Kualitas-kualitas ini umumnya penting, tetapi bukan yang paling ditekankan oleh pria tersebut dalam percakapan ini. X) An applicant with a background in office administration. — Pria itu merujuk pada pengalaman yang relevan dengan posisi pemasaran, bukan latar belakang administrasi perkantoran.
