Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.
Job interviews can generally be divided into three types.
The first is what I would call the traditional interview.This is usually just a series of standard questions about qualifications, work experience and expectations.So what you have here is basically a list of quite direct questions, like what duties did you have in your previous job.This is still the model for a lot of interviews today.In my view it's not the best to select staff.
Then there is the case interview.Here the interviewer presents a problem and a series of questions to find out how the candidate would approach the problem.It might go something like this, ‘A company wants to hire more graduates without spending more than its current budget.What would you advise them to do? ’This can be particularly challenging, for you need to analyze the problem and solve it.
The third type is known as the behavioral interview.The questions are usually designed to find out about how the candidates handle tricky situations in the past.A typical question might be ‘Can you give me an example of a situation where you had to follow orders that you didn't agree with? ’ This opens up a lot of information and the interviewer gets to see more of the candidate.
Questions:
14.What kind of questions are usually asked in the traditional interview?
15.What does the case interview focus on about the candidate?
16.What does the speaker mainly talk about?
14.A.Economic questions.
B.Routine questions.
C.Academic questions.
D.Challenging questions.
15.A.Work experience.
B.Educational qualifications.
C.Problem-solving abilities.
D.lnfomation-gathering abilities.
16.A.Features of different types of interview.
B.Skills in asking interview questions.
C.Changes in three interview models.
D.Suggestions for different job interviews.

M:You got it.That was my P.E.class.By that time I was turning professional and starting to show off some techniques at competitions.
