はい、こんにちは。今回はポッドキャストの24回目です。寒くなくなりましたが、天気のいい日と悪い日が交互に続いています。昨日は休みでした。天気が悪かったので久しぶりに漫画を読みました。漫画は、子供の時読むのと、大人になってから読むのでは印象が違いますね。昔読んだことのある漫画でしたが、重要な部分はほとんど覚えていませんでした。

Hello. This is episode 24 of my podcast. It is no longer cold, but the weather is alternating between good and bad. Yesterday was my day off. The weather was bad, soI read comics for the first time in ages. Reading them as a child and reading it as an adult gives a very different experience. I had read this manga in the past, but I could barely remember the important parts.

春なので、面接を受ける人が多いです。今日は日本の面接について話したいと思います。面接の種類は様々です。簡単なアルバイトの面接だと、数分の面接をして、だいたい１週間以内に結果がわかります。大きな会社の面接だと、１ヶ月ぐらいかけて、３回以上面接をすることもあります。最近はオンラインの面接も増えています。

It is spring and many people have interviews. Today I would like to talk about interviews in Japan. There are different types of interviews. For a simple part-time job interview, the interview lasts a few minutes and you will usually find out the result within a week. For interviews with large companies, it may take about a month and you may be interviewed three or more times. More and more interviews are being conducted online these days.

面接を受けるときは、履歴書を持っていきます。日本の履歴書は、フォーマットが決まっています。「履歴書」という名前の用紙が、文房具屋や、100円ショップや、コンビニで売っています。英語圏の履歴書は、自分でドキュメントを作らなければいけませんが、日本の履歴書は、用紙を買って、空欄を埋めるだけなので、少し楽です。

When you are interviewed, take your CV with you. Japanese CVs have a fixed format. You can buy a form called "Rirekisyo" at stationery stores, 100 yen shops and convenience stores. While in English-speaking countries you have to create your own document, the Japanese CV is a little easier as you just buy the form and fill in the blanks.

英語圏の履歴書と違うところは、日本の履歴書には、必ず生年月日を書かなければいけないところです。他には、履歴書に証明写真を貼らなければいけません。免許証やIDに使うものと同じ証明写真が必要なので、写真撮影だけで1000円ぐらいかかります。しかも、証明写真を撮るために、髪型を整えたり、メイクをしたり、きちんとした服を着なければならないので、面倒ですね。

Nissan has begun testing its new self-driving car on the streets of Yokohama.

The Japanese carmaker has been testing a Nissan LEAF prototype that uses its own self-driving technology.

During testing, the vehicle traveled on the busy roads of Japan's second largest city, close to the company's offices.

Nissan said the vehicle was able to predict the behavior of pedestrians, change lanes, and decide when it was safe to enter an intersection.

The prototype has 14 cameras, 10 radars and six sensors, and there was a safety driver in the driver's seat during testing.

This vehicle has more of this equipment than previous versions, according to Nissan, and has a number of sensors on the roof.

The company wants to release self-driving cars in 2027 and plans to do more tests this year in other busy parts of Yokohama.

It said that self-driving vehicles could help to make it easier for older people to get around towns and cities.

Japan is getting ready to have self-driving technology on its roads. The government changed its traffic laws last April to make this possible.

And according to a Kyodo News survey from the start of 2024, 36 of the country's 47 prefectures are thinking about using self-driving technology on their buses.

Many of the country's bus companies have had problems finding drivers and they have had to reduce bus services because of this.

Self-driving buses would help with this problem, but people are still worried about the safety of the new technology.

A self-driving bus service began in Fukui prefecture in 2023 but this was stopped after one of the buses collided with a bicycle.
