A: Very good. Now, I have a couple of final ques-
tions.
B: I hope they’re not too hard!
A: Well, why should we hire you?
B: I think that I would be a perfect fit in this com-
pany. I have a unique combination of strong tech-
nical acumen 1, and outstanding soft skills; you
know, I excel at building strong, long-term cus-
tomer relationships. For example, when I headed
the customer support department in my previous
company, our team solved about seventy percent
of our customers’problems. I decided that we
needed better information and technical prepa-
ration 2 on our products, so after I implemented 3
a series of training sessions in coordination 4 with
our technical department, we were able to solve
ninety percent of our customers’issues. Given
the opportunity, I could bring this kind of success
to this company.
A: Impressive! So, what would you consider to be
your greatest weakness?
B: To be honest, I struggle with organization and
time management. Punctuality has never been a
strength of mine. I find it hard to organize my time
efficiently 5. I have actually addressed this weak-
ness recently, by attending a workshop on effi-
cient time management. It helped me a lot, by
providing me with great insights on how to get or-
ganized and use my time efficiently, so I think I’m
getting better now.
A: Great... Well, let me tell you that I am very
pleased with this interview. We are short-listing
our candidates this week, and next week we will
inform our short listed candidates of the day and
time for a second interview with our CEO.
B: Great, thanks a lot! I hope to hear from you! Good
bye.
