贵公司专营加拿大、美国和澳洲的留学业务，特别专攻社会科学类的学门，不过你们在加拿大的市场特别大、也做得很用心，反而对于竞争激烈的美国只针对固定的五、六所顶尖学院，其它知名大学却没有花什么工夫去经营，所以我觉得我的加拿大背景很有优势。

Your company specializes in facilitating exchange programs in Canada, the US and Australia, especially for the social sciences. But you have a particularly strong market in Canada, and you are very meticulous there. In the more competitive US market, you only target five or six of the top schools. You don't spend as much energy on other famous universities, so I think my background in Canada is a big strength.
