Dialogue: A Job Interview
| John has a job interview for a Saturday job | |
|---|---|
| Interviewer: | So, you've applied for the Saturday position, right? |
| John: | Yes, I have. |
| Interviewer: | Can you tell me what made you reply to our advertisement? |
| John: | Well, I was looking for a part-time job to help me through college. And I think that I'd be really good at this kind of work. |
| Interviewer: | Do you know exactly what you would be doing as a shop assistant? |
| John: | Well I imagine I would be helping customers, keeping a check on the supplies in the store, and preparing the shop for business. |
| Interviewer: | That about covers it, you would also be responsible for keeping the front of the store tidy. What sort of student do you regard yourself as . . . did you enjoy studying while you were at school? |
| John: | I suppose I'm a reasonable student. I passed all my exams and I enjoy studying subjects that interest me. |
| Interviewer: | Have you any previous work experience? |
| John: | Yes. I worked part-time at a take-away in the summer holidays. |
| Interviewer: | Now, do you have any questions you'd like to ask me about the position? |
| John: | Yes. Could you tell me what hours I'd have to work? |
| Interviewer: | We open at 9.00, but you would be expected to arrive at 8.30 and we close at 6.00 pm. You would be able to leave then. I think I have asked you everything I wanted to. Thank you for coming along to the interview. |
| John: | Thank you. When will I know if I have been successful? |
| Interviewer: | We'll be making our decision next Monday, we'll give you a call. |
