ПРЕДИСЛОВИЕ

Дисциплина «Деловой иностранный язык в профессиональной сфере» предназначена для дальнейшего совершенствования компетентности в деловом иностранном языке, но при осуществлении профессионального подхода в выборе изучаемого материала. Дисциплина рассчитана на проведение занятий со студентами магистратуры технических направлений подготовки очной формы обучения, имеющими уровень подготовки не ниже Intermediate.

Авторы пособия проработали большое количество современных материалов по деловому иностранному языку, по академическому письму и по обучению иностранному языку в профессиональной сфере, многие из которых стали основой для заданий курса. По замыслу авторов, магистранты должны получить качественную подготовку по мере прохождения курса, так как все практические задания выполняются с учетом их профессиональных интересов и магистерских исследований, что подчеркивает практическую значимость созданного пособия.

Цель учебного пособия состоит в том, чтобы сформировать у магистрантов навыки в области деловой коммуникации, академического и профессионального письма, и обобщить их опыт в области профессиональной коммуникации. Пособие должно использоваться при подготовке к аудиторным занятиям, для самостоятельной работы студентов, на сервере дистанционного образования.

Необходимость написания пособия обусловлена отсутствием учебных разработок, специально предназначенных для обучения деловому английскому языку в профессиональной сфере. Пособие содержит необходимую общую информацию и полезные рекомендации для выполнения творческих заданий, которые подготовят студентов магистратуры к реальным действиям в их профессиональной жизни.

В начале каждого раздела (Unit) поставлены учебные задачи, далее следует основная вводная информация по теме, изучение которой дает возможность ознакомиться с содержанием темы и получить инструкции для самостоятельных действий.

UNIT 1 COMPANIES

Questions

1. What are the most common types of companies in the UK?

2. How are Limited Liability Companies subdivided?

3. By whom are Limited Liability Companies headed?

4. Who usually owns corporations in the USA?

 

Lead-in

The sole proprietor

This is the simplest and the oldest form of business enterprise and often referred to as the one-person business. A single person provides the capital, takes the decisions, and assumes the risks. He or she is solely responsible for the success or failure of the business and has, therefore, the sole rights to such profits as may be made, or, alternatively, bears the sole responsibility for such losses as may accrue. The one-person business is still far more numerous than any other types of business organization, but in terms of total output employment, value of capital employed, or value of total output, it is relatively unimportant compared with the joint stock company.

The strength of this type of firm lies in the direct personal interest of the proprietor in the efficiency of his enterprise. Ownership and control are vested in one person who enjoys all the fruits of success and hence has a great incentive to run the firm efficiently. Since the proprietor is the sole decision-taker and has no need to consult colleagues when changes

of policy are required we should expect this type of organization to be extremely flexible and capable of quick and easy adjustment to changes in market conditions.

The great disadvantage of the sole proprietor from an enterprise lies in the fact that the owner is personally liable for the debts incurred by his firm and his liability is unlimited. All his personal possessions are at risk and may be seized to meet creditors demands in the event of the business becoming insolvent. Another disadvantage of this type of firm is the strict limitation of its ability to acquire capital for expansion. Finance is restricted to the amounts which the entrepreneur is able to provide from his own resources and whatever sums he can borrow on his own security.

We find the one-person business prevalent in farming, retailing, building, repair and maintenance work, and personal services such as hairdressing [1].

 

The partnership

Partnerships are voluntary combinations of from 2 to 20 persons formed for the purpose of carrying on business with a view of profit. This type of organization represents a logical development from the one-person business since the obvious method by which such a firm may acquire further capital is to form a partnership. The motive, however, may not be financial and partnerships are often formed in order to bring new ability and enterprise into the business.

The partners usually share in the task of running the business, but a partner need not play an active role. A person who joins a partnership, supplying capital and sharing in the profits, but taking no part in the management is known as a dormant or sleeping partner. Partnerships are a common form of business organization in such professions as law, accountancy, surveying, and medicine.

The advantages of this type of firm are similar to those of the one-person business. It is a flexible organization which allows a greater degree of specialization than the one-person business. Partners usually specialize in one or more aspects of the business; one may be responsible for buying, one for selling, one for production, and so on. Since it has greater access to capital, it can achieve greater size than the sole proprietor.

The great disadvantage, like that of the one-person business, is the fact that the liability of the partners is unlimited and they are all fully liable for the acts of the other partners. There are, however, some limited partnerships which have to be registered – with the Registrar of Companies. In such firms some partners (e.g. dormant partners) may have their liability limited to some specified sum, but at leasonet of the partners must have unlimited liability.

The survival of a partnership depends upon the continued harmonious relationship between a number of people in situations which often give much cause for disagreement. Thus, where trading risks are very great, the partnership is not а vary stable type of organization [1].

 

The joint stock company

The most important form of business organization in the UK is the joint stock company. Basically, it consists of an association of people who contribute towards a joint stock of capital for the purpose of carrying on business with a view to profit. A company may be defined as a legal person created to engage in business, capable of owning productive assets, of entering into contracts, and of employing labor in the same way as an individual. There are two kinds of joint stock company, the private company and the public company. In 1986 there were some 860 000 joint stock companies in the UK, of which about 6 000 were public companies. The public companies are much larger units and account for about two-thirds of all the capital employed by companies. In general, private companies are small firms, often consisting of the members of one family. Both public and private companies must have at least 2 members. A public company must have a minimum allotted share capital of 50 000 pounds (sterling) of which at least one-quarter has been paid up. A private company must include the word “limited” in its name while a public company must have the words “public limited company” at the end of its name although this can be abbreviated to plc. The basic distinction between a private and a public company is that a public company can offer its shares and debentures for sale to the general public. In the case of a private соmpany it would be a criminal offence to ask the public to subscribe to its shares. All companies must file annually, with the Registrar of Companies, details of their turnover, profits, assets, liabilities and other relevant financial information about their structures and activities [1].

 

Departments of a company

The list of departments below is typical for many business – each one corresponds to a business function. Companies also have other departments related to their own particular business activity.

● Production might also include Purchasing and Quality Assurance (QA). ● Operations refers to all the internal processes of a company and might include, for example, Logistics. ● Sales might also include Business Development. ● Customer Services might include Technical Support. ● Marketing might include Market Research. ● Communications refers to all promotional activities including a strong focus on Public Relations (PR). ● Finance has many subdivisions, such as Financial Control, Treasury, Accounts and Payroll (= managing salary payments). ● Human Resources (HR). ● Information Technology (IT). ● Research and Development (R& D). ● Legal [5].

Professional Experience

Education

Task 2.5 Here's an outline of the sections which should be included in every Resume. Match sections (from 1 to 7) with the corresponding descriptions of what is to be written in each of it (from A to J).

1.Resume Heading A. Work history is the most important component of the resume. Employers will want to know where the applicant has worked, when he worked there, and what responsibilities he held. They will be looking to see how his (hers) experience lines up with what they are looking for in prospective employees. So, it is reasonable to list the jobs and internships the applicant has held in reverse chronological order, with the most recent positions first. Then, for each position, it is good to include: job title, company, location, dates of employment, and a bulleted list of the strongest accomplishments for each job. It’s important to be accurate because employers do conduct background checks.
2. Profile or Objective B. If the applicant has personal interests that are strongly related to the position he (she) is applying for, it is useful to list them here. This can be helpful if he (she) is applying for jobs where he (she) has a lot of related work experience, but does not have expertise achieved in other ways.
3.Summary of Qualifications C. If an applicant has volunteer experience that’s related to the jobs he is applying for, or if he has volunteered to avoid an employment gap, it is reasonable to list volunteering. The applicant is to review these tips for including volunteer work on his resume.
4.Experience D. This section of a resume includes the skills that are directly related to the job for which the applicant is applying. Employers typically list required or preferred skills in job listings when itemizing the qualifications for the position.
5. Volunteer Work E. It is good to mention awards and achievements the applicant has earned. They show the employer that he is a well-credentialed candidate who has been recognized for his (her) accomplishments.
6.Education F. Adding a profile or an objective to a resume gives the employer a brief overview of applicant’s qualifications. This is an optional component of a resume. Hiring managers want to know what the applicant has to offer.
7. Certifications G. A summary of qualifications is another optional section of a resume. It’s a statement that includes the skills, abilities, experience, and what qualifies the applicant for the position.
8. Awards and Accomplishments H. Full Name Street Address City, State, Zip Email Address Telephone Number
9. Skills I. This section of the resume includes any certifications the applicant has.
10. Personal Interests J. It is necessary only to list degrees earned, with the highest first, when the applicant has been out of school for a few years. If a person is a student or recent graduate, the education section of the resume can be listed above the employment history. If one has work experience, it is necessary to list it below that section. Education should be listed in reverse chronological order, with the most recent and advanced education first. One should include the name of the school, the degree earned, and the date he (she) graduated [9].

 

Нестандартное резюме

Если Вы решили написать нестандартное резюме, имейте ввиду - такая стратегия хороша не во всех случаях. Как руководство к действию она может быть принята представителями творческих профессий, которым " позволено" отходить от стандарта. Что же касается специалистов других (не творческих) профессий - инженеров, водителей, бухгалтеров, и т.п., - то здесь предпочтительнее соискателям оставаться в рамках официально утвержденных норм. Это связано, прежде всего, с тем, что от специалистов данного профиля требуется точность, скрупулезность и обязательное соблюдение должностных инструкций.

Следует учитывать, что кадровые агентства, как правило, используют присланные им резюме как источник получения необходимой информации о соискателе, поэтому она в " сухом" виде переводится в стандартный бланк резюме, в котором " творческие вольности" аннулируются. Если вы присылаете нестандартное резюме непосредственно работодателю, тогда есть шанс, что ваш творческий подход будет по достоинству оценен тем, кому он, собственно и предназначался [9].
