很快就到了約定的面試時間，Miss Melita
Fagurian準時來到了公司。在和Opal小姐談了工作要求和薪水后，她進行了一個聽寫和打字測試。下面是她們之間的對話。
MELITA: Good afternoon. I have an appointment with Miss Karli at four
o'clock.
OPAL: That's right. I'm Miss Karli. You must be Melita Fagurian. Do come in
and sit down.
MELITA: Thank you very much.
OPAL: I sent you an application form. Did you receive it?
MELITA: Yes, I did. I've completed it and brought it with me. Here it is.
OPAL: Oh thank you very much.. I also sent you a copy of our Conditions of
Service.
MELITA: Yes, I've read it through.
OPAL: Did you understand it?
MELITA: Yes, thank you.
OPAL: So now you know all about our working hours, holiday arrangements and
salary scales. Or are there any questions you want to ask?
MELITA: No, thank you, everything was explained very clearly.
OPAL: Good. Now let me tell you something about the job and the Company. Mr
Ballito is the Managing Director of the Company and I'm his secretary. I have a
great deal of work to do so Mr Ballito has decided to employ a junior secretary
to help me.
MELITA: Oh I see. So my work would be to help you?
OPAL: Yes, you would answer the telephone, do the filing and some
shorthand-typewriting. Can you use a duplicator?
MELITA: Yes, I've learnt how to type stencils and run off copies on a
duplicator at the Bank.
OPAL: Oh, good. Now, I'm going to give you a short dictation and typing test,
and then Mr Ballito wants to see you.
MELITA: Thank you.
面試第一關看來是通過了。然后，Mr Ballito將親自面試Miss Melita Fagurian，這一次的結(jié)果又將如何呢？我們下回再敘。
