Hello everyone. My name's Megan Baker and I'm a recruitment consultant at AVT Recruitment specialists.

大家好。我叫梅根·贝克,是AVT招聘专家公司的招聘顾问。

Now, our company specialises in positions that involve working in the agriculture and horticulture sectors, so that's fresh food production, garden and park maintenance and so on.

现在,我们公司专门招聘有关农业和园艺行业的工作,例如新鲜食品生产、花园和公园维护等。

And these sectors do provide some very special career opportunities.

这些行业确实提供了一些非常特殊的职业机会。

For a start, they often offer opportunities for those who don't want to be stuck with a 40-hour week, but need to juggle work with other responsibilities such as child care - and this is very important for many of our recruits.

首先,它们通常为那些不想一周工作40小时,但又需要兼顾工作和照看孩子等其他责任的人提供机会,这对我们的许多新成员来说非常重要。

Some people like working in a rural setting, surrounded by plants and trees instead of buildings, although we can't guarantee that.

有些人喜欢在周围都是植物和树木而不是建筑物的农村地区工作,但是我们不能保证这一点。

But there are certainly health benefits, especially in jobs where you're not sitting all day looking at a screen - a big plus for many people.

但这对健康肯定是有好处的,尤其是一些工作不需要整天坐在电脑前,这对许多人来说是是一个很大的加分项。

Salaries can sometimes be good too, although there's a lot of variety here.

虽然薪资常有变化,但是有的时候还算丰厚。

And you may have the opportunity in some types of jobs for travel overseas, although that obviously depends on the job, and not everyone is keen to do it.

在某些工作中,你可能有机会去海外出差,但是这显然取决于工作内容,而且并不是每个人都想去国外。

Of course,working outdoors does have its challenges.

当然,户外工作也有挑战。

It's fine in summer, but can be extremely unpleasant when it's cold and windy.

夏天天气很好,但在寒冷多风的时候可能会非常不舒服。

You may need to be pretty fit for some jobs, though with modern technology that's not as important as it once was.

虽然随着现代技术的发展,对身体素质的要求不像以前一样重要了,但是在某些岗位上,申请人的身体要特别健康。

And standards of health and safety are much higher now than they used to be, so there are fewer work-related accidents.

而且,和之前相比,健康和安全的标准都提高了许多,因此工作中的意外事故也就减少了。

But if you like a lively city environment surrounded by lots of people, these jobs are probably not for you -they're often in pretty remote areas.

但如果你喜欢充满活力,周围有很多人的城市环境,那么这些工作可能不适合你,因为它们通常在相当偏远的地区。

And some people worry about finding a suitable place to live, but in our experience, this usually turns out fine.

一些人担心找不到合适的地方居住,但根据我们的经验,住宿情况通常还好。
