I’m Bill Smith. I work in this university library, and today I’d like to tell you something about our library and show you how to use it. In the first room on our visit, you can find all kinds of dictionaries, guides and even telephone books. You may use these books only in this room itself. OK, let’s go to the next room. It’s a reading room. Different kinds of newspapers and magazines are kept here. You can always get them by yourselves. But they mustn’t be taken out of this room. Now, we are in the third room. In this room you can borrow novels, storybooks and science books. All the library’s books are listed here by title, by writer and by topic. When you are looking for a book, you must write the book’s call number, title and writer on these pieces of paper and give them to the person who works here together with your library card. You must return the book in two weeks. OK, that’s all. If you have any further questions about using the library, I’d be glad to help you. Thank you.

Interviewer: Good morning. I’m Ted King. I know both of you are interested in the job. I’d like you to talk about yourselves. First please tell me something about your work experience. Woman: My name’s Helen Brown. I’m married and I have 2 children and we just moved to town because the schools here are good. I hope my children will get a better education than I got. Our schools were terrible. The classes were huge and we never did anything interesting.
Man: My name’s Jim Green. I’m a part-time student at Boxfield Community College, but I have also worked at a number of different part-time jobs since I moved here. My most interesting job so far was at the college library where I helped to mend computers.
Interviewer: You know, everybody has strong points and weak points. Would you please talk about your strong points?
Woman: I’d say my strong point is that I’m good at getting to know people. Many people don’t like meeting new people but I love it. I seem to be able to make people feel comfortable right away. Maybe it’s because I really enjoy listening to them.
Man: Well, I think I make friends very easily. When I meet someone, I remember him and try to see him again later. At my last birthday party there were more than 50 friends in my house.
Interviewer: Now please tell me your weak points and what you do about them.
Woman: I enjoy talking to people and I know that in the past I have spent too much time on the telephone. Now I watch the clock while I’m making phone calls and I’ve cut my telephone time in half.
Man: I also have trouble getting off the telephone. I just enjoy talking with my friends, but it takes me a lot of time. Some days I spend hours on the phone.
