Helen: So, Bill, tell me about your last job. What kinds of work did you do?
Bill: Market investigation, sales promotion, after-sale services, risk analysis, investment planning –to name just a few.
Helen: Why did you leave?
Bill: Downsizing. The company wasn’t performing efficiently. It’s been operating at a loss. So the only way out was to lay off redundant employees.
Helen: Why do you think our corporation makes a good career move for you?
Bill: My experience at the last company is completely transferable to your company, since you deal in the same products.
Helen: Go on.
Bill: What’s even better, your corporation is a well-known multinational, and it’s working to become an industry leaser. I like that.
Helen: And that would be a real boost to your career?
Bill: Definitely. My last employer dealt with only small investments. But your company is handling large projects. That will help me grow professionally.
