对话文本
A: Thanks for coming in on such short notice. Did you find our studio okay?
B:Oh, yes, it was very easy to find with the directions you gave me.
A: Good. Well, let's get right into your interview. We're looking for someone who will be able to work on a part-time basis only.
B: That's no problem. I can work either part-time or full-time, but I actually prefer something part-time.
A: Tell me a litter bit about your qualifications. We've already had over fifty applicants for this position. What sets you apart from all the other candidates?
B: I think something I can offer that is different from everyone else is that I can speak several languages fluently. I have experience in intercultural communication, and I can help your station to reach a wider audience.
A: Have you ever worked in broadcasting before ?
B: I have done some work in print media, but this will be the first time to do broadcast media. Even though it is new for me, I learn really quickly. I have confidence I can get the hang of things in no time at all.
A: Would you mind giving us a demo right now?
B: No problem! I'd be happy to.
