Kevin: Come in! … Hello, yes … take a seat. Now, are you … ?
Tom: Tom … Tom Baker.
Kevin: Tom Baker. Ok. My name is Kevin Bird, Tom, and I’m going to interview you today.
Tom: Hi!
Kevin: Now then, how old are you, Tom?
Tom: Nineteen.
Kevin: OK. And what job are you applying for?
Tom: Waiter. Just a normal waiter.
Kevin: OK. Now we have two shifts, that’s seven to three or three to eleven in the evening. Do you have any preference?
Tom: No, I don’t mind. But I can only work Saturday and Sunday.
Kevin: That’s OK, Tom. Saturday and Sunday are our busiest days! Are you available from next Saturday?
Tom: Sure! That’s the eighteenth, right?
Kevin: Yes, Saturday the eighteenth. Great. But first can you tell me if you have any experience? Our standards are pretty high here at the Happy Chicken.
Tom: Well, last summer I worked for MacDonald’s … for three months.
Kevin: Right. How about as a waiter, though?
Tom: Oh, I worked over New Year in a local restaurant near my parents’ home.
Kevin: Oh yes? And did you enjoy it?
Tom: Sure, it was OK. I speak Spanish and there were lots of Spanish tourists, so I got good tips!
Kevin: Great! So you speak Spanish. Excellent. Well, there are still some other candidates so can you just give me your phone number and I’ll be in touch?
Tom: Yes, it’s 559304.
Kevin: 559304. OK! Oh! When is the best time to contact you?
Tom: Evenings, between five and eight, I think.
