Entrevista De Trabajo

Mr. Jones:

Hello. Nice to meet you.

James:

Hello. Yes, it's nice to meet you too.

Mr. Jones:

Well, James, I have looked at your résumé and I wanted to ask you a few questions.

James:

Yes, of course.

Mr. Jones:

Please explain what you did in your last job and why you left.

James:

I was working at Sam's Deli preparing sandwiches and other food orders for customers. I really enjoyed preparing the food, but what I liked most was the direct contact with the customers. When the summer season ended, my boss didn't need as much staff. Now I am looking for a position serving customers as a waiter.

Mr. Jones:

Did you serve people at tables at Sam's Deli or only prepare the food?

James:

Sometimes when we were short on wait staff I would serve customers at the tables.

Mr. Jones:

What would your last boss say about you?

James:

I think he would say that I was a very hard worker, responsible and very friendly with everyone at the Deli.

Mr. Jones:

You also worked at a bakery a few summers ago. Tell me about that.

James:

Yes, I worked two summers in a row at the bakery. I had direct contact with the customers all day and I really enjoyed it.

Mr. Jones:

What about your studies? Are you still in school?

James:

Yes, this coming year will be my last year at university. I'm finishing my degree in Marketing.

Mr. Jones:

That's an interesting field. What hours are you available during the week and on the weekends?

James:

Starting on the 15th, I will be studying Monday to Friday in the mornings from 9:00 to 2:00 and I will be available to work anytime after 2:00. On Saturdays and Sundays I am available all day.

Mr. Jones:

Good, we mostly need waiters for the dinner shift.

Mr. Jones:

Tell me why you think I should hire you for this position.

James:

I am a very responsible and hard-working person and I have really good customer service skills. I think I am a very friendly person and the customers will be happy with my service.

Mr. Jones:

Well, it was great to meet you and I will be in touch in the next week about this position, ok?

James: Yes, okay. Thank you very much.
