Hi, Mark. Are you in town for another job interview?
Yes, I'm pretty hopeful this time. I've just finished my second interview with this company.
That sounds great. I hope it works out for you. But wasn't it expensive just getting here?
No, in fact the company is paying all my expenses. They've put me up in a hotel downtown.
How nice! How many people are they interviewing?
They interviewed 16 the first time, and now four of us were chosen to go back for this interview.
Well, I hope it goes well. John and I would love it if you came to this area to work.
I would too. But my girlfriend doesn't want to leave her family. She hopes I find a job close to home.
