Part 6
Listening 1
Number one – yes, this is good advice. But actually we have an interview room with a table and chairs, so I don’t need to prepare it – it’s always ready.
The second point. Yes, now this is important. I ask them if they’d like a cup of tea or coffee, and yes, I chat about their journey. How they got here, did it take a long time? That sort of thing, just to get them talking.
Number three – ah now, it says ‘Don’t make a decision in the first minute’, but I do make quick decisions. I always know in the first minute if I like someone. I know I shouldn’t but I do.
Number four – difficult questions? Well, maybe it’s a good idea to ask difficult questions, but in my experience people don’t like them. Questions about money, about themselves, what sort of person they are, that sort of thing. It’s funny how people don’t like to talk about themselves, isn’t it?
And number five – a quick decision? Well, we always, always tell people in writing. After the interview I fill in a form, and this is used to write a standard letter, offering the job – or not of course – so I suppose people usually know the following day.

Listening 3
Applicant A bit of cinema, a bit of reading, you know … I don’t really have very much free time, really. In my current job I quite often have to work on Saturdays and Sundays, or late at night when the computers can be turned off – we sometimes can’t do much during the day because everyone’s using their machines.
Interviewer OK, great. Perhaps we can turn to this job now. First of all, why do you want to work for us?
Applicant I think because yours in the biggest company in the field. I’m really interested in modern communications, and the biggest company should offer the biggest opportunities.
Interviewer And what are your strengths and weaknesses?
Applicant Weaknesses? I haven’t got any! And strengths? Ambition. I really want to do well, and I’m flexible and reliable.
Interviewer Why do you think you’d be good at this job?
Applicant Oh, um, why would I be good? I don’t know really … I just think I’d be good at it, I mean, I know a lot about systems support, and this seems to be the perfect job for me.
Interviewer Where do you want to be in five years’ time?
Applicant I want to progress within the organization – I’d like more responsibility, and more money too, if possible!
Interviewer Speaking of money, could I ask you a few details about your current salary and extras?
Applicant Yes, sure. Well, I’m earning 19,000 at the moment, but then I get some overtime on top of that, so I suppose altogether it comes to more like twenty-two. And I’m a member of the company pension scheme which is good for the future …
Applicant Yeah, the traffic was terrible, and the weather, it took me ages to get here, and then I couldn’t find the car park! I’ll just put my umbrella in the corner here, shall I? Anyway, I’m really sorry I’m late.
Interviewer Well, I’m glad you got here in the end. Now, we should probably get going as fast as we can, because I’ve got another interview at 12.00. I think the most important question I can ask is ‘Why do you want to work for us?’
Applicant Well, I’m a bit bored where I’m working at the moment, so I’d really like a change. I mean, I’ve been there for nearly a year now. I don’t know if I’ll like it more here, but it’s a bigger company, and the salary’s a lot better than the job I’ve got. Also, I like the idea of flexitime, because I find it really hard to get up in the morning!
Interviewer And what would you say your main strengths and weaknesses are?
Applicant Strengths? A sense of humour. And weaknesses? Well, everybody says I’m really disorganized, but I don’t think I am. I’m sometimes a bit late, you know, for meetings and deadlines, but I usually survive! I think I’m reliable – I always do what I say I’m going to do, eventually.
Interviewer Why do you think you’d be good at this job?
Applicant Oh … hmm, that’s a difficult question. Well, I’ve got the right qualifications, I’m interested, and I like a challenge. I’m quite independent, too.
Interviewer And where do you want to be in five years’ time?
Applicant Australia, I hope! I mean I’m planning to stay in Britain for a year or two, but to be honest I really want to move somewhere hot and sunny. And after a couple of years I’ll probably feel like another change.
Interviewer OK. And what about your free time? What sort of
things do you do?
Applicant Um, well, I like to keep my weekends completely free – I hate having, having to work at the weekend, because I go walking. I try to get up to Scotland whenever I can. And I play a lot of sport, tennis, squash, things like that, you know …
