Now we’ve seen all the candidates, what do you think?
It’s a difficult choice, but I thought Steven was the most strong of the three.
Oh? You couldn’t be more wrong! Meera definitely has better experience.
Well of course she does, she’s older than the other two
Yes, and she’s more mature.
True. But don’t you think she’s a bit set in her ways? Would she really fit in here?
I don’t see why not. Let’s face it, the other two are very young – significantly
younger than more most of our staff.
That could be a good thing. I mean younger people are more adaptable than older
ones.
OK. What about Ahmed? He was the most best qualified in the candidates.
I’m not sure. He seemed the less promising of the three. He was too laid back.
Yes, he was the easily most relaxed – people are usually more nervous at
interviews.
So we come back to Steven. He was one of the ambitiousest candidates I’ve ever
interviewed. I thought that was a positive thing …
Yes. But he’s very distant. Aren’t we looking for someone more friendly and
approachable? Let’s look at their CVs again.
