As a Chinese, I can speak my native
language fluently, but my English is
pretty limited. As a result, I had to rely
on my team members to ask interview
questions. However, when we were
interviewing a young lady, the lady
took the initiative to talk to me and
encouraged me to ask her questions in
English as she saw me standing aside
