—- Bob and Darren work together. They are talking about interviews for a new sales manager position at their company. Bob: We need to make a decision on who we are going to hire for the new salesperson position. Darren: I know. There are a lot of good applicants.

So far we have interviewed 10 people and have looked at over 50 resumes. Bob: Well, let’s take a look at some of the best and make a decision. Darren: OK, the first person is Phil. He has worked as a salesperson for 10 years in both The United States and Canada. Also, he has been the manager of the sales department of a large auto-parts company.

Bob: Sounds interesting, but has he ever worked in the food sales industry? Darren: No he hasn’t. Bob: That might be a problem. We need someone with food experience.

Darren: OK, what about Karen? She has worked in the food industry for 6 years.

She has been a manager of a major supermarket and worked in marketing for a large meat company. Has she worked in international sales before? Darren: No, she has never worked in international sales. Bob: Well, that could be a problem. This job will require a lot of international experience. I think we need someone who has worked in an international environment Darren: Well what about Larry?

We haven’t met him yet but his resume looks good. He has been a salesperson in the food industry for 13 years. He has worked in The United States, Canada and Mexico.

In the past 4 years he has learned to speak Spanish and French. Bob: Wow, sounds great! Darren: The problem is we still haven’t had an interview with him. I have called him many times, but I haven’t been able to reach him. Bob: Well, why don’t you send him an email?

Perhaps he will respond that way. Darren: OK, I will try that. I will let you know.

Bob: Great, thanks.
