How do you cope with tension?

　　你如何处理紧张的关系?

　　I believe my professionalism was universally respected by my former bosses and co-workers, and I think I was well-liked by the vast majority of people with whom I came in regular contact.

　　我相信我以前的上司和同事都非常尊重我的专业精神，并且经常接触我的人大部分也都非常喜欢我。

　　I gained promotions quite quickly after arriving at my former employer, and of course, there was always some jealousy, even resentment, from people who had perhaps been there longer and felt a certain sense of entitlement.

　　我进入上一家公司后，很快就获得提拔。当然，这个时候，我也总是会招致一些资历较深的或感觉自己有些特权的人的嫉妒，甚至是怨恨。

　　But I strived to understand that and demonstrate, by my work ethic and commitment to excellence, that I was objectively a solid choice and that reasonable people could say I was a great choice.

　　但是我试图去理解他们，并且用我的职业道德和追求卓越的精髓证明，客观上讲我的晋升是有说服力的，明理的人都知道我是正确的人选。

　　In almost all cases, I was able to establish cordial relations with those whom I was promoted over.

　　在大部分情况下，我都可以和职位在我之下的人建立友好关系。

　　I think that is the strongest evidence of my interpersonal skills.

　　我想这完全可以证明我有很好的人际关系技巧。
