Fiona:<\/strong> How did your presentation go yesterday?<\/p>\n\n

Chris:<\/strong> Oh, not bad. Thanks for asking. There were a few tricky questions at the end. One guy asked about the present status of the ______ of the IT staff we\u2019ll need.<\/p>\n\n

Fiona:<\/strong> Oh! That\u2019s not really your area of expertise, is it?<\/p>\n\n

Chris:<\/strong> Well, of course not. I told him that that was a question for our head of recruitment \u2014 and that I\u2019d ask her to ______ him an email with the latest report.<\/p>\n\n

Fiona:<\/strong> Good. It\u2019s best not to try and ______, as you\u2019ll nearly always be ______.<\/p>\n\n

Chris:<\/strong> Yes, and I didn\u2019t want to ______ the question either. But the guy who asked the question seemed happy with my response, so I avoided getting ______.<\/p>\n\n

Fiona:<\/strong> Well done!<\/p>\n"},"overallFeedback":[{"from":0,"to":100,"feedback":"recruitment = Einstellung, Personalbeschaffung; drop (drop sb. sth.
