Job hunter puts CV on billboard
 A French man who was unemployed tried a new way to get a job. He put his CV (résumé) on a 
giant billboard. The billboard was next to a very busy road. It was four metres long and three metres 
high. There was a photo of the man wearing a Santa Claus hat. There was a message on the billboard that 
said: "Trilingual operations manager seeks position in hotels, restaurants, tourism and leisure." About 
70,000 people a day could see the CV from their car. Jobseeker Laurent Le Bret, 41, said: "All I want for 
Christmas is a job." His idea worked. A holiday resort contacted and interviewed him. He started his new 
position as an operations manager ten days after he put his résumé on the billboard.
 Mr Le Bret had help from the owner of the billboard. He was going to pay to put his CV on the 
billboard. However, the advertising company decided to give him the space for free. Mr Le Bret saved 
2,000 euros (about $2,700) because he did not have to pay. The advertising company is called Pisoni 
Publicité. The company's CEO spoke to the France 24 news agency. He said: "We thought it was an 
interesting idea. When people come up with ideas like this we are always keen to see what we can do. 
We’re very happy to prove that what we do works, and that Mr Le Bret is back at work." Many people 
contacted Mr Le Bret after he got his job. They want to try the same thing. There are 3.3 million 
unemployed people in France.

the following questions.
The difference between a leader who creates long-term value and one who merely goes through the motions 
often comes down to a commitment to lifelong learning. [I] In today's rapidly changing business 
environment, organisations around the world face significant transitions. [II] Companies need talents 
capable of adapting up-and-downs in supply chains and keeping up with innovations and new 
technologies. Organisations that prioritise lifelong learning are better equipped to tackle unexpected

 DeThiTiengAnh.net Bộ 14 Đề thi Tiếng Anh 12 Global Success cuối kì 2 (Có đáp án + File nghe) -

using time wisely. A significant hurdle to learning new skills or achieving goals is finding the time to do 
so. Time is a precious resource, and we must focus it on what matters most. Without a purposeful strategy, 
our objectives may become lost among competing responsibilities.
Secondly, routines often shape our mornings, evenings, and daily activities. Effective time management 
begins with a clear understanding of our goals and the reasons behind our tasks. By being mindful of how 
we allocate our time, we can make consistent progress toward our aspirations.
Additionally, we should remain open to feedback, which is a key tool for assessing growth in both personal 
and professional contexts. While performance evaluations may be uncomfortable, embracing feedback 
enables us to monitor our development and improve. Input from others is essential for our learning and 
improvement. So, remember to pay attention to the feedback you receive and use it as an opportunity to 
build on what you have learned. To truly become lifelong learners, we must welcome challenges from 
others and allow ourselves to grow.
 Adapted from: "The Number of Americans Wanting to Switch Jobs Hits a 10-Year High" - The World 
 Street Journal
