1. A bright sixteen-or-seventeen-year-old is needed to work on Saturdays from nine till six on our market stall
selling clothes. Our stock consists of a wide range of trousers, jeans and shirts of modem design. No previous
experience is necessary as we provide full training on the job. The main qualities required are an ability to deal with
the customers in a positive and friendly manner.
2. You are a natural optimist. You are happy most of the time and always expect the best. However, you are often
careless and you don’t always work hard enough, because you think everything will be fine. Remember, nobody is
lucky all the time.
3. I was twenty-three when I went to
Cosmopolitan
as a secretary. I had to do all the usual secretarial jobs like
answering the phone and typing letters. And at eleven o’clock I made the coffee, and I had to clean the fridge once a
month. After a year I began to train as a sub-editor and then got my National Certificate - a qualification for British
journalists. After a time I became features editor on
Cosmopolitan.
My secretarial training has been incredibly
useful.
4. Find out as much as you can about your prospective employers and the business they are in. Think about the
questions you are most likely to be asked, and at least three questions you would like to ask them. Don’t only talk
about what you hope to get from the firm. Say what you can do for them and all the things in your previous
experience and training that you think will be useful in the new job.
5. I feel I would be suitable for this position because I have good organizational skills, and I greatly enjoy going out
and meeting new people. I have experience of this kind of work. Last summer I was employed by
Imperial Hotels
as
a tour organizer, and arranged excursions to places of interest. I also worked for
London Life
last Christmas, which
involved taking groups of tourists around the capital. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you require any further
information. I look forward to hearing from you.
6. At the moment I’m staying at a hotel in Athens and I’m doing quite a lot of sightseeing. You would not believe it
but the job doesn’t seem to be too demanding. Most of the time I deal with bookings and answer inquiries. But I
suppose it’ll be different when the tourist season starts next month. Even now restaurants are beginning to get
busier. Next, I’m moving to the island of Crete, which is where most of the people in the company live. See you
soon.
7. There are Search and Rescue Services all around the coast of Britain. They must be ready to go out at any time of
the day or night and in any weather. Sometimes they must rescue people in the mountains in a storm at night. It isn’t
easy to navigate a helicopter in the dark just a few metres from a mountain. The crews work on 24 hour shifts, so if
a ship sinks or if someone falls down a cliff, Search and Rescue will be there to help.
