English term

seldom is proactive

Non-PRO English to French Other Human Resources
Bonjour à tous,

Il s'agit ici d'un examen des compétences (Competency Review). Le texte se divise en trois "items" : "fundamental" "intermediate" et "strenght".
Dans la partie ""fundamental" on a : "Resources are utilized when issues arise, not always in a timely manner.
Pursues completion of work as needed, seldom is proactive."

"Les ressources sont utilisées lorsque des problèmes surviennent, pas toujours en temps opportun.
Poursuit l'achèvement des tâches au besoin, ???"

Comment comprenez-vous ce "seldom is proactive" dans le contexte de la phrase ?

Merci à vous

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (3): writeaway, Rob Grayson, mchd

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Merci Tony :)
Tony M Jan 29, 2017:
@ Asker The EN word order is a bit off, as since we have an implied suject 'the person' followed by 2 verbs 'pursues' and 'is', the position of 'seldom' would be more natural after the 'is' than before it.
Willa95 (asker) Jan 27, 2017:
Merci FX C'est finalement ce que j'avais compris mais je ne voyais pas le rapport avec le reste ici, d'où ma question. D'autant que la tournure n'est pas simple...
