Assistent Thank you
   
 Klára Kovács Good morning! I am Klára Kovács.
Jan Van Camp Good morning! My name is Jan Van Camp.
Klára Kovács Please take a seat. Did you have any difficulty finding us?
Jan Van Camp Yes, thank you. There were no problems. Your office is easy to reach so I found it no problem.
Klára Kovács I am pleased to hear that. Just a moment, I will get your CV. I see you are applying for an internship position at our company. Can you please tell me where you heard of this vacancy?
Jan Van Camp One of my professors from the university, Mr. István Juhász, told me about the opportunity initially. He brought my attention to the offer and I found it really interesting.
Klára Kovács We have known Prof. Juhász for a long time and we keep in close touch with him. We respect his professional opinion about a student, but I see you studied in the Netherlands. How do you know Prof. Juhász, then?
Jan Van Camp Thanks to a scholarship, I was able to spend a semester at university in Hungary last year, where I attended a course taught by the professor.
Klára Kovács So we can say that you have some experience in the Hungarian and in an international environment as well. Can you tell me why you want a placement at our company?
Jan Van Camp During my studies in the field of landscape design I gained a wide theoretical knowledge but I want to gain some real practical experience as well
Klára Kovács When I was looking for an internship, I wanted to find a placement where I can learn a lot and I can improve my skills. I have heard your company is dealing with several different projects and thanks to these I could gain experience in many different areas.
Jan Van Camp Do you have any specific interests? Which project would interest you the most?
Klára Kovács The descriptions of the projects on the website were not very detailed so before I can answer this question I would like to have more details.
Jan Van Camp Unfortunately at this stage of the application procedure I cannot provide you with further details about the projects  - just if you fit our requirements for the position of intern. In most of the cases it will be like an assistant’s job in planning the project. Would this be your first professional experience?
Jonas:Klára Kovács Yes. Unfortunately, until now I did not have the opportunity to gain experience in my field of studies. I just had different student jobs during my studies.
Jan Van Camp As I see you are a member of many different clubs and associations and you are doing sports at a really high level. How do you manage your time for all these? Did you have time for your studies?
Klára Kovács Thanks to doing sport from my childhood I learned how to manage my time to have time for everything that I want to do. Especially for my studies. Besides, I do not like to feel bored.
Jan Van Camp Thank you for your time. That is it for now. I want to invite you for the next interview session with the different project leaders. Can I ask you to bring one of your university projects with you for the next appointment? 
Klára Kovács I will call you with the exact details tomorrow, after I have talked with the project leaders.
Jan Van Camp Thank you! Goodbye.
 Klára Kovács Goodbye
