Mr. Stevens: | Good. Now, in front of you is the list of requirements for the job. Have you read it? |

James: | What about benefits? |
Mr. Stevens: | Two weeks' holiday, full medical coverage, and an excellent pension plan. Our personnel department will tell you more. |
James: | That sounds perfect. When will I know your decision? |
Mr. Stevens: | We have about twenty more people to interview for the position this week. We'll have to see how you stack up against the other applicants. We should be able to notify you by the middle of March. |

Getting along with idioms
Andrew Monk arrives just in time for his interview. He completes an application form and then talks to an interviewer.
Mr. Reed: | Where have you worked before, Andrew? |
Andrew: | So far I've had only summer jobs. |
Mr. Reed: | I see. |
Andrew: | But I'm a good worker, and I'm looking for something permanent. |
Mr. Reed: | It sounds like you really want to get ahead, Andrew. |
Andrew: | Yes, Mr. Reed. I always do my best. I write well, and I'm an excellent typist. I take pride in my work. |
Mr. Reed: | So you think you would like this job as a receptionist? |
Andrew: | Yes, I would. |
Mr. Reed: | You would have to be on time every day. Could I count on you to be here at exactly 9.00 a.m.? |
Andrew: | Oh, yes. I was always on time in high school. I had a perfect record. |
Mr. Reed: | There's one thing I want to point out. Sometimes business isn't good and we have to lay off workers. We can't guarantee the job for more than six months. |
Andrew: | I understand. I'm willing to take a chance. |
Mr. Reed: | We'll let you know our decision next week. |
Andrew: | Thank you, Mr. Reed. |
