[I = Interviewer ; L = Laura]
I: Thank you for coming in for an interview, Ms Gallini. I've read through your CV and I'd just like to check a few details. You 've applied for the post of Technician, but we currently have two technician posts vacant. Which job are you interested in?
L: I'm particularly interested in the job of Technician for New Product Development.
I: OK. I see that you 're currently working at Horton Engineering as a Junior Technician .
L: Actually, I'm now a Senior Technician, since last month
I: I see . Good! And how long have you worked there?
L: I joined in 2008, so I've been there since then, until now. I' m sorry, it says 2005 on my CV; but the correct date is 2008.
I: And what are your responsibilities in your current job?
L: Most of the time I work on quality control and product testing. But I'm currently helping develop a new product. That involves building a prototype. It's a company secret, so I can' t say much about the project.
I: Fair enough! Now, exactly what kind of business is your company in?
L: We're involved in robotics, and medical engineering as well . So, more or less the same field as yourselves.
I: Mmm. I see you started your career before you went to university. How long did you work at Farley Marine?
L: I worked there for two years, from 2003 until 2005. By the way, they 've changed their name. They were taken over a couple of years ago, and now their name is BAMC pic.
I: Right. What was your job description there? And what did you do every day?
L: I was an Apprentice Engineer. Most of the time I did machining and
finishing. But at the end I was doing some quality control work, too.
I: Excellent. And then you went on to Albany College of Engineering. How long did your course last?
L: It was a three-year course. I went there in 2005 ...
I: And you got your qualification at the end of it, I see, in 2008.
L: That's right. I was awarded a Bachelor of Applied Sciences. The course involved all th e sciences, but I specialised in Physics and Mechanical Engineering.
I: And why do you want to leave Horton Engineering?
L: It's a small company, so I'd like to move to a bigger company that has a bigger R&D department and a greater product range. I'd really like to try my hand .. .
