An Interview
Woman: Viet Organic Garden Restaurant. How can I help you? Mark: Good evening. I'm calling to ask about the vacancies for servers. Woman: What would you like to know? Mark: Are these part-time jobs? Woman: Yes, they are. Currently, we're looking for two servers to work at weekends. Mark: Sounds good. So what are the working hours? Woman: Each server will be required to do 12 hours - six on Saturday and six on Sunday. Mark: That'd be fine. The job wouldn't interfere with my studies. Woman: Are you at secondary school or university? Mark: I'm a 12th grader. I'd like to take a part-time job this year. Woman: I see. Mark: Could you also tell me what the job involves? Woman: Well, you'll be expected to greet customers and show them to their tables, present and explain the choices on the menu, then take their orders and collect bill payments. Mark: Do I have to wait on customers during meals? Woman: Yes, of course. You'll be responsible for serving the food and drinks to customers and making sure they're enjoying their meals. Mark: Will I get any on-the-job training? Woman: Yes, you'll be supervised by the head server. Work experience is not that important. We're looking for people who are able to listen to what customers want and speak to different people in a friendly way. Servers also need to have good maths skills and a good memory. Mark: I think I can handle money accurately and memorise food items quickly. So how do I apply? Woman: Great! Please send your application letter to the restaurant before the end of this week and we'll arrange an interview next week. Mark: I'll do that. Thank you so much.
