Examiner: So, we have three jobs available this summer. Have you had a chance to look at them?
Candidate: Yes, I have. I’m not sure about the job of fruitpicker. Although it’s well-paid, it’ll be very tiring. You have to work all day in the fields. Not only that, it might be rainy too, so you’ll get very wet and cold.
E: Some people like the idea of being outside in the fresh air all day.
C: I know, but I prefer working inside.
E: Well, what about the job of sales assistant?
C: Yes, I quite like the look of that one. I’m very keen on fashion so I’ll find it interesting to work in a clothes shop. I’m sure I’ll enjoy it even though the hours are long. And the money isn’t great …
E: What about this third job: dish-washer. It’s better paid than the sales assistant.
C: Hmm. Yes, I like the idea of being part of a team. But I don’t think washing up in a restaurant kitchen will be very rewarding. It’ll be really repetitive.
E: So, which job do you want to apply for?
C: Hmm. Well, not fruit-picking. That’s really hard work, and I’m not very physically fit! Not the job of dish-washer either. The job is quite well-paid. However, I really don’t want to work in a kitchen. So I’d like to apply for the job of sales assistant. The pay is not very good. Nevertheless, I’m choosing this job because I’m interested in fashion..
