Attending a job interview - Transcripts Interviewer: Good morning Ms Badura, please have a seat. Kate: Good morning, it's a pleasure to meet you. Interviewer: Could you tell me who you work for at the moment? Kate: Yes. I'm working for KP Lewis. Interviewer: How long have you been working for them? Kate: I've been working for KP Lewis for the past three years. Interviewer: And how long have you been working in the accounting department? Kate: I've been working in accounts for the past eight months. Interviewer: And why are you leaving your job? Kate: Well, to be honest, I feel that I cannot use all my skills in my current job, and the position that you offer looked like an excellent match for me. Interviewer: You know this job requires a lot of travel. Is that a problem for you? Kate: No, no, that's not a problem. In fact, I really enjoy travelling and I don't have a family to look after, so it's fine. Interviewer: Have you had any experience in sales? Kate: Yes. As you can see from my CV, I worked part-time as a representative for a language school. They were offering summer language courses and I had to visit different agencies. Interviewer: That's interesting. How successful were you? Kate: Well, the school I worked for managed to increase registrations as a result of my collaboration. Interviewer: Very interesting...so what are your goals for the future? Kate: Well, in the short-term I want to develop my sales skills and gain more experience in selling. In the long-term, I would like to obtain a high position in a growing company...like yours. Interviewer: And tell me...what is your greatest weakness? Kate: Well, I admit, I tend to wait until the last minute to make appointments. But I'm getting better at this and I've recently realised that scheduling in advance makes more sense. Interviewer: How do you cope with pressure? Kate: Actually, I work quite well under pressure. I find it very motivating and it helps my focus on what I have to do.
