WOMAN: So, I understand you’re interested in restaurant work?
MAN: Yes. I’ve got a bit of experience and I can provide references.
WOMAN: That’s good. I can check all that later. Now, Milo’s Restaurants have some vacancies at the moment. They’re a really good company to work for. Lots of benefits.
MAN: Oh right.
WOMAN: Yes. They’ve got a very good reputation for looking after staff. For example, all employees get training – even temporary staff.
MAN: Oh really? That’s quite unusual, isn’t it?
WOMAN: Certainly is.
MAN: And do staff get free uniforms too?
WOMAN: Um … you just need to wear a white T-shirt and black trousers, it says here. So I guess not … But another benefit of working for a big company like this is that you can get a discount at any of their restaurants.
MAN: Even at weekends?
WOMAN: No, but you’ll be working then anyway.
MAN: Oh yes. I suppose so. Most of their restaurants are in the city centre, aren’t they? So, easy to get to by bus?
WOMAN: Yes. That’s right. But if you have to do a late shift and finish work after midnight, the company will pay for you to get a taxi home.
MAN: I probably won’t need one. I think I’d use my bike.
WOMAN: OK. Now, they do have some quite specific requirements for the kind of person they’re looking for. Milo’s is a young, dynamic company and they’re really keen on creating a strong team. It’s really important that you can fit in and get on well with everyone.
MAN: Yeah. I’ve got no problem with that. It sounds good, actually. The last place I worked for was quite demanding too. We had to make sure we gave a really high level of service.
WOMAN: That’s good to hear because that will be equally important at Milo’s. I know they want people who have an eye for detail.
MAN: That’s fine. I’m very used to working in that kind of environment.
WOMAN: Perfect. So the only other thing that’s required is good communication skills, so you’ll need to have a certificate in English.
MAN: Sure.
