籤合同是就業求職中必不可少的一環，勞動合同不僅是保障我們的利益也是約束用人單位和勞動者的法律依據，所以今天我們就來學習一下和簽訂勞動合同有關的英語對話:
首先先來了解一下和勞務合同有關的知識:
Before you start working in most foreign companies, they will ask you to sign a contract. If it is a foreign company, the contract will be in English and will have many western terms and conditions.
大多數的外企公司都會在要你工作之前先跟你籤一份合同。如果是外國公司的話，合同還會是英文的，並且會有很多西方條款。
The contract will have all of your employment conditions such as what your job will be, your working hours and the amount you will be paid.
這份工作合同包含你的僱用情況的所有條款，例如，你的'工作是什麼、工作時間是多少，以及你的報酬等。
The contract will also say how much notice you should give the company if you want to resign or leave and how much notice they will give you if you are fired.
合同中還規定，如果你要想辭職離開公司話，你要提供什麼樣的通知；如果公司想把你辭掉的話，又該如何通知你。
It is very important to read and understand the contract fully before you sign it. If you don't understand anything, you should ask someone to explain it carefully to you.
在籤合同之前，認真全部讀懂合同是很重要的。如果你有不明白的地方一定要仔細問清楚，讓他們給你詳細的解釋。
Once you have signed the contract, ask for a photocopy and keep it somewhere safe.
你一旦簽了合同，要留一份副本，並把它妥善儲存起來。
下面透過一短對話來詳細瞭解一下如何簽訂勞動合同
