| Good morning. |
| Oh, good morning. |
| Is this... er... er... room number 26? |
| Yes, that's right. |
| So, is this the Student Job Centre? |
| It certainly is. |
| How can I help you? |
| Well, actually I'm looking for a job - a part-time job. |
| Do you have anything available at the moment? |
| Ah, yes... Are you a registered student? |
| I'm afraid this service is only available to full-time students. |
| Yes... I am. |
| I'm doing a degree in Business Studies. |
| Here's my student card. |
| Which year are you in? |
| Well... I've been at uni for four years but... |
| I'm in the third year because I took last year off. |
| Right... well... |
| let's just have a look at what positions are available at the moment. |
| There's a job working at the reception desk at the Sports Centre, for three evenings a week - |
| that's Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. |
| That sounds like fun but... |
| unfortunately I have evening lectures - so that's not possible, I'm afraid. |
| Is there anything during the day? |
| OK, that's no good then. |
| Um... What about cleaning? |
| There's a position for a cleaner at the Child Care Centre. |
| But you'd need to be there at 6 am. |
| Does that appeal? |
| Six o'clock in the morning! |
| Oh, that's far too early for me, I'm afraid... |
| I'd never make it that early in the morning. |
| Well, there was a position going in the Computer Lab for three days a week that might be okay. |
| Ah, here it is! |
| No, it's in the library, not the lab, |
| Ah... Clerical Assistant required - |
| I think it mostly involves putting the books back on the shelves. |
| Oh no, hang on. |
| It's for Wednesday and Friday evenings again. |
| No, I can't manage that because of the lectures. |
| OK, I'm getting the idea. |
| Ah... look, I'll just get a few details from you anyway, |
| and then we can check through the list and see what comes up. |
| We'll fill in the personal details on this application form first, if that's okay? |
| Yes, that's fine. |
| Now, what's your name again? |
| Anita Newman - |
| that's NEWMAN. |
| And your address, Anita? |
| I'm in one of the Halls of Residence for post-graduate students, |
| you know, International House. |
| Okay, that's easy. |
| Er... what's your room number there? |
| Room B569. |
| Er... No, sorry, B659. |
| I always get that wrong. I haven't been living there very long. |
| Do you have any other skills? |
| Typing, languages, that sort of thing? |
| Well, I speak some Japanese. |
| Right, I'll make a note of that. |
| Now, let's see what else is available. |
| What do you think of administrative work? |
| There is a position for an Office Assistant at the English Language Centre. |
| That sounds interesting. |
| It's for 3 days a week - |
| Monday, Friday and Saturday mornings. |
| Interested? |
| Mmm... I was hoping to have Saturdays free. |
| But I need the work so... |
| can you tell me what the job involves? |
| Yup, sure. |
| It says here that you'll be required to deal with student enquiries and answer the phone. |
| Oh, I'm sure I can handle all that without a problem. |
| Great. |
| Well, would you like me to arrange an interview for you? |
| Say, Friday morning, around ten? |
| Oh... Ah... Could we make it a bit later? |
| Unfortunately, I've got something to do at ten. |
| Would that be okay? |
| Not a problem. |
| How about eleven thirty? |
| Hope it works out for you Anita. |
| Me too. And thanks for all your help. |
