W: Hello. Care for the Community. How can I help you?

M: Oh, good morning. I’m interested in doing some part-time work for your organization. My name is Philippa Tailor. I’m a student at Brookfields University.

W: Good morning, Philippa. When would you be available to work? Days? Evenings?

M: Well, days would be difficult, as I have classes then. I was thinking maybe a couple of evenings a week, or maybe three. But no more than that.

W: OK. Philippa, why are you interested in working for us?

M: Well, I major in Social Care Studies. I’m hoping to apply for a job in social care when I graduate, and this would give me some work experience in this field.

W: Great. And what makes you suitable for this kind of work, do you think?

M: Well, I have very good communication skills. That’s my strong point, I think. And I’m a good listener. Sometimes you can help by just listening, you know.

W: I agree. Hmm, right. What I’d like to do, if it’s OK with you, is fix an appointment so we can meet and talk about this some more. It wouldn’t be anything formal, not an interview or anything like that. Er, how are you fixed for Tuesday 9th September at 4:30?

M: Ah, I’m sorry. I have a lesson then. Would Wednesday be possible?

W: The 10th? Yes, that would be fine.
