Sue Jones: Yes.
Interviewer: Very good, very good, that ... that might be very useful. Now ... er ... tell me a little bit about ... er ...
the work you're doing at present.
Sue Jones: Um ... well Europa Marketing is a marketing and publ... public relations company.
Interviewer: Yes, I've heard of it.
Sue Jones: And they do ... they do consultancy work for companies operating in the UK and European markets. Er
... our clients come from all over the world ... um ... we deal with some of them by ... by post, but most of them come to
our offices and at least once during a project. I assist the Sales Director by arranging these visits, setting up meetings
and presentations and I ... I deal with all her correspondence. I've not been able to go with her on any ... on any of her
trips abroad, but I ... I've been to firms in this country, several times on my own ... um ... to make these arrangements.
Interviewer: It sounds as if you're very happy there, Miss Jones. I'm curious why you'd like to leave them and join
our company?
Sue Jones: Well ... um ... I know the reputation of Anglo-European and it has a very good reputation. And I feel
that I would have more scope and opportunity in your company and the work would be more challenging for me. I
might be able to possibly travel and use my languages because at the moment most of my work is... is rather routine
secretarial-type work and I like the idea of more ... um ... challenges in my life really.
Interviewer: Yes, aha, aha.
Discuss the following points:
a) Sue's work experience
b) The responsibilities of the PA to the Sales Director
c) Sue's reasons for getting the job
Second interview
Interviewer: ... yes, well, your CV seems pretty well up to scratch. Now, I wonder, can you tell me more about
yourself?
Tom Richards: Um ... well, I ... .
Interviewer: Yes?
Tom Richards: I... I'm... well, I think I'm serious... serious-minded, I... calm ... .
Interviewer: You're calm?
Tom Richards: Yes, well, yes, I like a joke, though, good sense of humour, I don't panic in a crisis and I... I enjoy
working with all kinds of people. I... I even like... um... p... people who are, you know, bad-tempered or something like
that.
Interviewer: Yes, but wh... where do you see yourself in let's say five years' time?
Tom Richards: Um ... well, I... sort of the long-range thing. Well, I... I see myself in the public relations and...
er... well, one day I must admit I would rather like to open up my own consultancy in my own home town.
Interviewer: Mhm, what is it specifically about Anglo-European PR that attracted you?
Tom Richards: Er... well, first of all, I want to leave my present employers because they're a small company
and... er... I know about Anglo-European PR, I mean, they're a... they're a good company, larger. I think I'll have more
scope,.. er... the work will be more challenging. I mean, quite a lot of what I do at present is quite boring, it's... it's rou-
tine secretarial work.
Interviewer: And... and you'd like to move on?
Tom Richards: Yes, if I could, you know, hopefully to a job that gives me more opportunity. So I can use my ini-
tiative.
Interviewer: Mhm.
Tom Richards: Can I just ask you this question? Excuse me... I'd like to know if I get this job with Anglo-
European, would I be able to... um... work abroad in one of your overseas branches?
Interviewer: Oh, yes, certainly.
Tom Richards: Oh, good.
Interviewer: Um... our staff regularly do six-month placements in other branches.
Tom Richards: Six. Oh well, that's good.
Interviewer: So I'm sure you might ... .
Tom Richards: Um... that's what I'm interested in.
Interviewer: Mhm. Can. I... d... I know we're all human beings here and I'd like to know wh ... what you consider
your strengths and your weaknesses.
Tom Richards: Um... strengths and weaknesses? Haha. Well, I … I mentioned before, I think my sense of hu-
mour... er... and my ability to work with all types of people is a particular strength.
Interviewer: Yes.
Tom Richards: My weakness? I don't know, I suppose I'm a bit of a perfectionist... I... I'm quite often dissatisfied
with what I've done. I always think I can do it better, you know, or in a different way. Interviewer: I wouldn't call that a
weakness, I'd call that a strength.
Tom Richards: Well... ah... well, that's good, well... I mean, apart from that I... I suppose I get a little bit sort of full
of the 'Wanderlust' and that's why I want to travel. I'm easily bored with repetition and... er... and procedure.
