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.
Notes
RSA is the Royal Society of Arts which offers secretarial qualifications in different subjects at different levels.
PA means Personal Assistant.
