招聘过程：面试求职者（一）

MELITA： Good afternoon. I have an appointment with Miss Karli at four o'clock.

OPAL： That's right. I'm Miss Karli. You must be Melita Fagurian. Do come in and sit down.

MELITA： Thank you very much.

OPAL： I sent you an application form. Did you receive it？

MELITA： Yes， I did. I've completed it and brought it with me. Here it is.

OPAL： Oh thank you very much…… I also sent you a copy of our Conditions of Service.

MELITA： Yes， I've read it through.

OPAL： Did you understand it？

MELITA： Yes， thank you.

OPAL： So now you know all about our working hours， holiday arrangements and salary scales. Or are there any questions you want to ask？

MELITA： No， thank you， everything was explained very clearly.

OPAL： Good. Now let me tell you something about the job and the Company. Mr Ballito is the Managing Director of the Company and I'm his secretary. I have a great deal of work to do so Mr Ballito has decided to employ a junior secretary to help me.

MELITA： Oh I see. So my work would be to help you？

OPAL： Yes， you would answer the telephone， do the filing and some shorthand-typewriting. Can you use a duplicator？

MELITA： Yes， I've learnt how to type stencils and run off copies on a duplicator at the Bank.

OPAL： Oh， good. Now， I'm going to give you a short dictation and typing test， and then Mr Ballito wants to see you.

MELITA： Thank you.

面试第一关看来是通过了。然后，Mr Ballito将亲自面试Miss Melita Fagurian，这一次的结果又将如何呢？我们下回再叙
