What would the man like to major in according to his application?
W: Hello there. It’s Robert Johnson, isn’t it?
M: Yes, that’s right.
W: First of all, thanks for coming to this interview and thanks for applying to the engineering department of Westley University. This is a fairly informal interview where I just get to know you and find out what kind of person you are. There won’t be any technical questions as we’ve got all your education background from your application form.
M: Oh that’s good.
W: Now I know you have applied to us to study Civil Engineering, so can you tell me why you chose this field?
M: It’s a mixture of reasons really. First of all I’ve always been fascinated by building things. Whenever the family was on holidays, I would always be interested in the local bridge and all that. My father is a civil engineer too, so he’d always be able to explain things, and it was he, I suppose, who really fostered my interest in these things. I’m lucky as well because my best subjects at school were math and physics, which are the ones that are of particular use for engineering.
W: So, you’ll be keeping it in the family then?
M: Yes. My brother wants to do the same thing as well, so you’ll probably get an application from him in another two years!
W: Great! Now then, I notice from your application form that you took a year off between school and university. What did you do during that year?
M: Well, I’d like to say that I got plenty of work experience but what I did was travel. I went over to Australia for the year and spent the time traveling and working all around the country. At the end I went to New Zealand and traveled around there for a couple of months.
W: What kind of work did you do out there?
M: It was fairly menial stuff. I delivered furniture, worked in a pub, worked in a hotel and worked on a building site for a couple of months too.
W: Working on a building site must have been some good experience for engineering?
M: I suppose so. I mean it was interesting to see the brass tacks side of things and a good engineer has to get his hands dirty, my father says.
W: He’s absolutely right as well. Now, why did you choose Westley University to study Civil Engineering?
M: Well, first of all I know that the department has a very good reputation in this field and, before applying, I checked out the statistics and saw that the percentage of graduates going straight into industry was very good.
W: Yes, we’re very proud of that.
M: I’m also very interested in mountaineering and your campus here in the Midlands is within reasonable distance of Snowdonia, so I’ll be able to go hiking at weekends when work allows it.
W: That’s good. It’s very important for students to have interests outside of their studies. It helps deal with the stress.
