I семестр

Варіант №2

I. Read the text and translate it in the written form:

Nelly Bennet decided to apply for a job of Personal Assistant/Secretary at Compact Systems. So she sent her curriculum vitae, the names of two referees and a cover letter, giving her ideas about what makes a good PA/secretary. A few days later she received a reply inviting her for an interview.

 

PM: Personnel Manager

MM: Marketing Manager

HB: Nelly Bennett

􀁒􀁒􀁒

PM: Come in. Ah, good morning Miss Bennett. Thank you for coming.

HB: Good morning.

PM: Please sit down.

HB: Thank you.

PM: Can I introduce you to Alice Everett, our Marketing Manager.

HB: How do you do?

MM: How do you do?

PM: And I am Sheila Polson, the Personnel Manager. So, Miss Bennett, did you find us easily this morning?

HB: Yes, it’s an easy route from where I live in Southtown.

PM: And do you have your own car?

HB: Yes, I have.

PM: Good. Can we check on a few of your personal details? You were born in 1973, is that right?

HB: Yes, 3rd September 1973 to be exact.

PM: And you’re single.

HB: Yes, I am.

PM: OK. Can we move on to your education now? You’ve got four “O” levels including English language?

HB: That’s right.

PM: Thank you, very much, Miss Bennett. Alice, would you like to continue?

MM: Yes, certainly. Miss Bennett, can you tell us a little bit about where you have worked before?

HB: Well, my last job was with Format.

MM: And you were a PA there?

HB: Yes, that’s right.

MM: And when did you start with them?

HB: Two years ago.

MM: I see. So why did you decide to leave?

HB: Well, perhaps you heard that the company went into liquidation earlier this year.

MM: Yes, we heard about it.

PM: So what did you like about that job?

HB: Well, my job was PA to the Marketing Manager. What I enjoyed most was coming into contact with customers and suppliers both face-to-face and on the phone.

MM: And where did you work before Format?

HB: Ideal Systems.

MM: And how long did you work for Ideal System?

HB: For ten years, as a secretary.

PM: And why did you leave that job?

HB: Well, I felt that I needed a change. I think I had learnt all I could there.

MM: Going back to Format. Who did you work for there?

HB: A man called Peter Smith. Do you know him?

MM: We’ve met. OK, that’s enough on work experience. Do you have any word-processing experience?

HB: Yes, as a secretary at Ideal Systems I used a word-processing system designed by the company. It was called “Word”.

MM: And what about Format? That was also a computer company, wasn’t it?

HB: Yes, that’s right.

MM: So how much experience do you have of working in computer companies?

HB: Well, two years at Format and ten at Ideal Systems. Oh, and I also had some work experience with a software company while I was at college.

PM: What secretarial qualifications did you get while you were at college?

HB: Well, I’ve got two secretarial qualifications. I’ve got RSA Stage III Typing.

PM: So your typing should be pretty good?

HB: Well, in Fact I didn’t do much typing at Format. I’ve got an RSA in shorthand.

PM: And which qualification exactly?

HB: The RSA 100… so 100 words per minute.

PM: Fine. And one final questions. If we decided to offer you the job, when could you start?

HB: Oh, I could start immediately or as soon as you wanted me to.

PM: Fine. I think that’s everything. Have you got any questions?

HB: Well, I think it’s enough.
