M: Joe, I’ve got to use your advice.
W: What’s up, Bob?
M: O. K. Listen, I’ve decided to apply for that job I was telling you about. The one I saw in the Sunday Times. You remember?
W: Yes, I remember. Johnson, wasn’t it? What was it, a chemical company?
M: No, light engineering. Rather like that place I was at in Leeds.
W: Oh yes, of course. Light engineering. I remember now. And it was for a manager, wasn’t it.
M: Yes. Personnel Manager.
W: Very nice too. Do you feel optimistic about it?
M: Well, I wouldn’t say I exactly feel optimistic, but at least my training and experience have put me in with a chance. So perhaps could say I feel reasonably optimistic about getting shortlisted. But the interview—that’s different.
W: Why, for goodness sake? You’re not scared of interviews, are you?
M: No, I’m not scared of them, but 1 doesn’t feel at my best in interviews. Not when I’m on the receiving end. I suppose at Yorkshire Engineering, I spend so much of my time interviewing other people that I feel off balance when I’m in the hot seat myself. I’m afraid I’ll be caught unprepared
W: Oh I shouldn’t worry too much about it if I were you. As you say, the job’s absolutely made for you. I shouldn’t think they’ll get many applicants with your qualifications. What’s the pay like incidentally?
M: Oh the pay’s good. Nearly twice what I’m getting now. But then it is in London.
W: Was the money the main reason for applying?
M: One of the reasons. Probably not the main reason.
W: What was that then?
M: Well, I like working at Yorkshire Engineering, but I’d like more scope for putting a few ideas into practice. You know, old Sam is all right, and he’s...
W: Who’s Sam? Is he your boss?
M: Yes. He’s the Personnel Manager and he’s very understanding, pleasant to work for and all that. But he’s very slow to respond to new ideas. I mean, you’ve got to move with the times these days or you’re soon left behind.
W: Good for you. I hope you fed them all that guff about your qualifications and experience in your application. I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you, at any rate.
M: Thanks, I’ll need it.
