MODEL2 Do you have any tips for a successful interview?
Script¹
Susan: John, do you have any tips for a successful interview?
John: Well, first of all, you need to dress professionally.
Susan: Oh, what about during the interview?
John: Ok, be sure to maintain² good eye contact and answer all questions politely and directly. Don’t look too shy, nor should you sound too aggressive.
Susan: I’m not sure what kind of questions they’ll ask.
John: They’ll probably want to know a little about your work experience. Many companies don’t want a completely green hand. They don’t want to spend time and money on training.
Susan: Fortunately, I gained some experience at an IT company during the last summer holiday.
John: They may also want to know something about your character. You see, ability for teamwork is usually valued.
Susan: What kind of questions should I ask them?
John: You should ask them about the job requirements and about the company.
Susan: Should I ask about salary and fringe³ benefits?
John: Better not. Not unless they bring it up. Just use the first interview to sell yourself.
Susan: You’re right. If they are interested in hiring me, there will be plenty of chances to talk about money later.
John: Right. And the more interested they are, the more they’ll offer.
