1 A So what do you think of the candidates for the job?
B I have to say, not many of them have had the right kind of experience. I liked the last one, though – she showed a lot of intelligence, and she had plenty of self-confidence, too.
A She probably was the best of the lot today. Still, wehave another group to interview tomorrow, so we might find someone who’s perfect for the post.
