I'm phoning up about this job you advertise in this paper. This...er...young sales manager?
Oh, yes. I'd like to apply for it. Would you send me an application form? No. You simply send in a written application, a letter. Can you tell me a bit more about the job? Well, we are really looking for someone who isn't too concerned about working fairly long hours. What do you mean by "long hours"? This is a job which does, as the advertisement says, have travel possibilities, and very often, one would be away at weekends, for instance. Oh, I thought you meant working in the evenings and working overtime. Well, it could also mean working in the evenings. But for a managerial post, I'm afraid we don't pay overtime. Mmm...that's for other grades. Oh. What kind of money are you paying then? Well, this is to be negotiated. Oh, it depends partly on your experience and education.
