1Hello, is this John Murphy?
2Hi, yes it is.
3Hi John, this is Ed Heisenburg from the Wild Dunes Spa and Resort
4calling about your application for our lifeguard position.
5Do you have a few minutes to talk?
6Yes, absolutely.
7Great. Could you give me your address?
8Sure.
9My address is 45 Elsinore Court.
10I'm sorry, was that Eleanor? Could you spell that for me?
11Sure - it's Elsinore.
12E-L-S-I-N-O-R-E.
13Okay, thanks.
14And is this the number we should reach you at in the future?
15099885767?
16No, that's my home phone,
17but let me give you my mobile number instead:
18077896245.
19Call me on that one.
20Okay - I'll make a note of that.
21Could you tell me your availability?
22Sure. I am usually available during afternoons or weekends.
23I'd prefer not to be scheduled on weeknights because I work part-time as a waiter.
24That shouldn't be a problem,
25since we don't stay open very late anyway.
26Do you have any other employment experience?
27Yes, I have worked at a few other places.
28I was the baseball coach at Ridgemont High School last season.
29I see.
30And do you have any other experience that you would like us to note on your application?
31Yes.
32Last year I worked at the beach as a rescue diver.
33Rescue diver?
34That sounds intense!
35Well, it's really just like being a lifeguard, except in the ocean instead of a pool.
36So kind of like being a lifeguard at the world's largest pool.
37Haha. I see.
38So could you tell me about the relevant skills you have?
39I'm guessing a lot, given your experience.
40I am CPR certified and have 2 years of diving experience.
41Great! It sounds like you are well qualified for this position.
42When does your CPR certification expire?
43Hm. I think in November, but let me quickly check my CPR card...
44actually, it expires in October.
45Okay, so regardless you have it through the end of the summer.
46When is your ideal time to work?
47Since I work in the restaurant on weeknights,
48I like weekends best - specifically Saturday mornings.
49I see.
50We do already have a lot of staff available on Saturdays,
51but I do need an early morning shift lifeguard.
52How early could you work Saturday morning?
53I can get there by 6 o'clock if need be.
54You'll be happy to know we open a little later than that,
55but I'll put you down for Saturday mornings here.
56Oh awesome! I can't wait to get started.
57How about you come in next Saturday, the 12th?
58That sounds good.
59Great.
60We can figure out other shifts for you to work when you come in then.
61One last thing - just out of curiosity, where did you hear about us?
62I heard your ad on the radio while I was driving this morning.
63You know, I think you're the first person who has responded to our radio ads.
64It's almost always people who have seen us in the newspaper.
65Yeah, I don't have time to read through the newspaper every morning.
66I've plenty of time in the car to listen to radio ads.
67That makes sense.
68Well, thanks for your time, and we'll look forward to seeing you on the 12th.
