Tom: Hi, guys. I heard you might be going to Australia, Casey!
Casey: Yep. I’m looking for a part-time job to save up. Maria is helping me.
Maria: This company is looking for a translator.
Casey: I don’t speak any other languages.
Tom: I wouldn’t recommend the job then. This coffee shop is looking for a server. Why not here?
Casey: I would have to deal with angry people. I also would have to work late at night. Then I couldn’t enjoy my stay here.
Maria: And tips aren’t steady.
Casey: Yes. That is true too.
Maria: What about this? A fashion company is looking for a part-time assistant.
Tom: And they need someone to start right away!
Casey: That sounds perfect!
Maria: You should call them.
Casey: OK.
Employee: Fashion INC.
Casey: Hi! Could I speak to the manager?
Employee: This is the manager.
Casey: My name is Casey. I was wondering if the part-time assistant position was still available.
Employee: Yes. We haven’t filled it yet.
Casey: What sort of position is it?
Employee: You would be helping around the office.
Casey: What are the hours?
Employee: Four times a week from 9am to 2pm.
Casey: That’s perfect.
Employee: Why don’t you come in for an interview?
Casey: Great!
[later that day…]
Casey: Hello. I’m here for the interview for the part-time assistant position. Can I speak to the manager?
Employee: Yes. You can.
Casey: Great!
Employee: What’s your name?
Casey: My name is Casey!
Employee: Oh, Casey. Yes.
Casey: It’s great to meet you. I just want to tell you, I can write pretty well. I have a fashion blog. I’m also really good with people. And as you can see, I’m good at fashion.
Employee: Sounds good.
Casey: I’m also reliable and a hard worker. I can do a really good job.
Employee: Sounds like you’d be a great assistant.
Casey: Really? When can I start?
Employee: Oh, I don’t know. You have to interview first.
Casey: This isn’t the interview?
Employee: No, let me call the manager… Hi, Ben? This is Mike from downstairs. Casey is here to see you…
