MAN:                       
Have a seat, please, Miss Jenkins.

WOMAN:                       
Thank you, sir.

MAN:                       
Well, I'd like to start our conversation with some questions. Shall I start?

WOMAN:                       
Sure.

MAN:                       
Can you type, Miss Jenkins?

WOMAN:                       
Yes, I can.

MAN:                       
How many words a minute?

WOMAN:                       
Sixty.

MAN:                       
Hmm. Have you ever learned how to operate office computer?

WOMAN:                       
Yes, I have. I worked for two years as a computer operator in a school.

MAN:
Good. Are you familiar with other modern equipment, the fax machine, printer, and things like that?

WOMAN:
I don't think there's any problem for me to work on these machines. You know, sir, I've even learned shorthand.

MAN:                       
You have? That's good. And you speak foreign languages, do you?

WOMAN:                       
Yes. I speak German and French.

MAN:                       
Do you speak Italian?

WOMAN:                       
No, I don't speak Italian. But I speak Chinese.

MAN:                       
Really? We have branches in Beijing and Shanghai.

WOMAN:                       
You mean I have the job?

MAN:
Wait, wait, Miss Jenkins. I have to talk to the general manager before a final decision is made.

WOMAN:                       
I see. When can I know the result?

MAN:                       
In about two weeks, I think.

WOMAN:                       
Thank you very much.

MAN:                       
Goodbye, Miss Jenkins.

WOMAN:                       
Goodbye.
