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 ilustrativa)
