INTERVIEW
Chris: Good morning. I'm not too early, am I?
Boss: No, not at all. You've been given a cup
of coffee, haven't you?
Chris: Yes, I have, thank you.
Boss: We should be ready for you in a couple of
minutes. You wouldn't mind filling in these forms while you're waiting, would
you?
Chris: Ok, no problem. I'll give them to the
receptionist when I've finished, shall I?
Boss: If you would.
Later...
Boss: ...So the hours are 9.30 to 5.30 Monday
to Friday, that's normal, isn't it? And you'll be working in the stats
department: the receptionist showed you where that is, didn't she?
Chris: Well yes, she did, but...
Boss: And you haven't had any major illnesses,
have you?
Chris: No, but I did want to say that...
Boss: And you've had a look at the terms and
conditions, haven't you?
Chris: Yes, but I think there's been some sort
of mistake.
Boss: Mistake? You are at Jones and Jones,
having an interview for the position of Account Manager, aren't you?
Chris: Well, no, actually, I'm in IT. You do
have IT vacancies here, don't you?
Boss: Yes, of course we do. But your name is
Chris Jones, isn't it?
Chris: I'm afraid not. My name's Chris Smith.
Boss: Oh my goodness, there must have been some
sort of mix-up. You will accept my sincerest apologies, won't you?
Chris: Of course. No harm done! (foto
