In this lesson, we will show you some commonly used phrases during an interview.

Hello. May I come in?

Yes, please. Come in. Have a seat.

Thank you sir.

How are you?

I’m fine

So why don’t you tell me what brings you here?

Well, I've just finished college and I got my degree in Fashion Retail which is something I love.

So I thought it’d be best if my post graduation was also in the same field.

Well... your resume tells me you've been quite dedicated towards fashion retail.

Yes Sir, I have.

Okay...I’ll be straight to the point, Tracy. There are lots of applicants this year.

You've got a pretty good chance but the competition is tough. Give me a reason why I should give you the seat.

Well, I topped the batch in my last uni. You can ask my professor about my work there.

Hmm.. That’s interesting. Maybe I will.

We are going to put out a list of selected candidates next week. Maybe you’ll be in it.

Thank you, Sir.

How are you today, Mr. Sandler?

I’m fine. Thank you.

I can see that you've applied for a business visa to Europe.

Yeah, that’s right.

And what is your business exactly?

I’m an exporter of home furnishing items.

What is the purpose of your visit? I mean..are there any specific business prospects?

I’m planning to set up an office in Brussels for my business in Europe.

The purpose of this trip is to find office space and hire some people.

Are you in touch with any importers in Europe?

Yes, I am. I've been working with a couple for more than a decade. I will also be meeting them during this trip.

I see. That sounds good. I will go through the papers you’ve submitted and if everything is in order you’ll get your visa next week.

Thanks. Is that all?

Yeah. That will be all for now.
