job
interview john
just graduated college he is looking for
a job
julia a recruiter from xyz company
invites him for an interview
hello you must be john right
thank you for coming to our company
today my name is julia
and i will be interviewing you for the
position of software developer at our
company
nice to meet you julia thank you for
giving me this opportunity
of course did you have any trouble
finding the office
nope the directions on the website were
great
good would you like some coffee or
whatever before we begin
i’m okay thank you should we start now
of course first of all can you tell me a
little bit about yourself
just a few sentences should be fine
yeah so my full name is john smith
i recently graduated from abc university
with a bachelor’s degree in computer
science
while i was studying i successfully
built software to track deliveries from
abroad
i did it with the help of two of my
professors
it is my biggest achievement yet you can
have a look at it
through the link i included in my resume
right now
i’m looking for a job that can provide
me with the necessary tools to develop
even more complicated applications
that is really impressive may i ask how
did you find
out about our company as well i was
referred to your company by
an acquaintance but i had already known
about you before that
your online presence is very strong
thank you can you tell me why you are
interested in working for us
i believe that your company has one of
the strongest technical departments in
our field of work
there are many predecessors that i can
learn
from if given the opportunity
furthermore the company culture of peers
being supportive of each other is very
appealing
you seem to have done a lot of research
on our company
what can you do that differentiates you
from other applicants
i noticed from your job description that
you are looking for someone with a
unique perspective
given my background of multiple years
living abroad
i believe i would be suitable for this
job
very interesting is there anything you
dislike about this job or our company
not much but i do have to say the lack
of an efficient communication channel
is worrying but i can definitely help
with that too
i agree that can be very useful
tell me how do you define success as a
software developer
i think of software development as a
lengthy process
a successful developer should not only
be able to create useful applications
but also should be open to criticism and
be able to adapt accordingly
i see that’s enough about the job should
we start talking about your plans
sure how long do you think you will be
able to work for us
as long as possible if allowed maybe
even 10 years
i can be very committed if i feel like i
am rewarded accordingly to my
contribution
okay based on your resume i think you
are more than qualified for this
position
what do you think about this i
personally don’t think so i agree that i
have done harder tasks before but i have
never
worked in a company setting with a scope
such as yours
i still think i can earn a lot of
knowledge from it
right i see that you interned for
another tech
company for a very long time why did you
not continue working for this company
i actually really loved my previous job
but
i do feel like i have outgrown it my
daily tasks were getting repetitive
therefore i could not grow my expertise
much
how did it feel to leave do you regret
it
no not really i do miss my old
colleagues very much but
i enjoy a good challenge and this one is
definitely fitting
furthermore i believe that every
opportunity is a valuable experience
that i can learn from
good mindset what do you think about
your old boss
oh daniel he is actually one of the best
people i have ever worked with
i say with and not four because he never
treated me as a subordinate
he always treats every employee the same
way and listens to their wants and needs
that is very valuable i’m happy to
inform you that our boss here is pretty
much
the same that’s really good to hear
is there anything else that you want to
know about me
let me see oh yes i am missing some
personal
information what high school did you
attend i
don’t see it here on your resume oh i
didn’t include it because i studied high
school abroad
it is located in mexico named x
i understand by the way are you married
i am asking this because you might have
to move around a lot if you work for us
not yet i am very flexible with my
schedule
that’s great one last question
what do you usually do in your free time
i would describe myself as a very active
person
i play all kinds of sports for example i
like swimming a lot
i go swimming at least once every week i
also really enjoy playing basketball and
golf
really do you watch sports as well of
course
as often as i can okay
i think i have all the information i
need from you do you have
any questions for us actually yes
may i ask about salary i don’t think we
have covered that
well we will have time to talk about it
in detail if you get
accepted for now however i would say
you can expect anywhere between a
thousand
to two thousand dollars a month i see
thank you very much you’re welcome thank
you again for coming today
we will inform you of the result through
by the latest friday amazing
thank you i hope we will be able to work
together in the future
