[quote=ICEBLUE,330406]I can't help thinking about my job interview for a position in a call center? The interviewer (the boss of the call center) asked me the same question above: which do you prefer, British accent or American accent? He also asked me about the differences between British English and American English. He asked me the question in Chinese and required me to answer the questions in English. After I answered his questions, he said:" you seem to like British accent' He also said that his major in college was Chinese and he actually can not understand what tallked about ( I guess his English level is bad). He said that even though he could not understand much English, he could judge my language sense. He said he liked American English since it was mellow and full. He wanted to employ the candidates speaking American English for his call center. So I was disqualified. I was discriminated for prefering British English!!![/quote]
