What she hadnt known at the time of the interview was Opt the candidat
6、es “different” behavior was simply a cultural misunderstanding. He was an Asian-American raised in a household where respect for those in authority was shown by averting (避开) your eyes. “I was just thrown off by the lack of eye contact; not realizing it was cultural,” Tiffany says. “I missed out, bu
7、t will not miss that opportunity again.” Many of us have had similar encounters with behaviors we perceive as different.
