M: That’s rather young. What experience have you had?

W: Oh, that’s no problem. I took extra classes in office skills at school.

W: I started by learning keyboard skills. Then I went on to learn about word processing.
M: Good. You seem qualified from the technical point of view. But how well do you think you’ll get along with people in an office?

M: Sounds good. Let’s see…There’s a request from Johnson’s Imports for "a bright youngster…".
