Jethro gets ready for his job interview.
He takes a shower.
He shaves.
He bruhes his teeth.
He cuts his fingernail.
He combs his hair.
He puts on the new suit he bought just for to day.
Jethro feels confident. He is also very nervous.
Here is why. Jethro graduated at the top of this class in college, still, Jethro knows the economy is bad. His dad just lost his job at the bank a few weeks ago! Many people are interviewing for the very same job. There is a lot of competition.
Jethro is still positive. He thinks he has a good chance of getting the job at the technology company.
Jethro arrives at his interview at 9:45. He is 15 minutes early. He realizes the importance of being prompt. He does not want to be late.
"Have a seat. Mr. Stone will be right with you," the receptionist says.
Jethro sits. He thinks about what he has learned to do in an interview.
Look people in the eye.
Give a firm handshake.
Speak clearly.
Jethro feels ready.
"Mr. Stone is ready to see you now," the receptionist says.
Jethro takes a deep breath and walks into Mr. Stone's office.
"Good to meet you, sir," Jethro says and gives Mr. Stone a firm handshake and a smile.
