Employment Finding A Job
Frank is a college student who badly needs some extra income. He is trying to find a part-time
job so he often buys a newspaper with classified ads where he can read about IT jobs. He
finds some posts like network operator, system administrator and help desk operator, which
are tasks for an undergraduate too. Now he can see how clever he was when he took his
English exam because most companies want the candidates who can speak English. He knows
that he needs a CV so he has to write it in English too. He will write about his studies as a
web designer and he will write about his programming skills too. He will have to ask a
teacher at college to write him a reference letter and he will have to find time for the job
interviews. He is quite excited when he gets the first positive answer and he starts dressing up.
