I speak some English, but I’m not very good at it. I can’t type very fast. I lost my first job because I didn’t do much. I found my previous job totally boring.

I’m afraid I was just a waitress. I spend a lot of time surfing the net. I only worked there for a summer. I’m only sixteen, so I have very little work experience. I don’t really know what salary to expect.

Dress up for the interview to get across a responsible attitude. Calm down before the interview by having a coffee. Think about the job and write down your strengths and weaknesses. Look things up about the company on the Internet. Turn up at the interview a couple of minutes early. Settle down in your chair and look around the room. Take down notes during the interview. Make up information about yourself. Make out you understand something when you don't. Go on about your personal life. Speak up and express yourself clearly. Come up with a couple of questions about the job.

A is applying for a job. B conducts an interview. A- bring a relevant CV and answer the questions. B- look through the candidate’s CV and ask him or her questions.
