Interviewer(I): Good morning, Miss
Miss Jones(J): Miss Jones.
I: Miss Jones, yes, right. Hi, Um now, you’d like to join our team, I gather ...
J: Yes, I would.
I: That’s very good. Er I’d like to know a little bit about you. Perhaps you could start if you could tell me a little bit about your education.
J: Oh yes, right. Well, I left school at 18 and for the first two years I went to Gibsons, you might know it, it’s an engineering firm. Um and after that, I wanted to do a course, so I did a one-year full-time PA course and went back to Gibsona. I was PA to the Export Director. I stayed there for two years and then moved on to my present company. Um that’s Europa Marketing um Mr Adair, the marketing director, offered me a job because Gibson had worked quite a lot with Europa Marketing. And I’ve been with them for three years now Um first working with the Marketing Director and and now I’m with the Sales Director.
I: That’s all very interesting, Miss Jones. Um,.- l’d like to know, what did you enjoy most at school’? What was the course that you enjoyed most?
J: Ah foreign languages I liked best. We did French and German. Yes.
I: Mhm. And are you quite fluent in those now?
J: Yes, a bit rusty now, but um obviously the more travel I can do, the more [ can use my languages and I’d like to learn another language. I’d like to add Italian as well.
I: Italian?
J:Yes.
J: Very good, very good,  that might be very useful Now er tell me a little bit about er the work you’re doing at present.
J: Um well er Europa Marketing is a marketing and public relations company and 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 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 deal with her correspondence. I’ve not been able to go with her on any of her trips abroad, but I’ve been to firms in this country, several times on my own to make these arrangements.
I: It sounds as if you’re very happy there, Miss Jones. I’m curious why you’d tike to leave them and join our company.
J: Well um I know the reputation of Anglo-European and it has a very good reputation. And I feel I would have more scope and opportunity in your company and that the work will 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 rather routine secretarial-type work and I like the idea of more um challenges in my life really.
