Susan was very nervous about her interview. For at least three weeks before it she was worried
about it. She really wanted the job but she knew that a lot of people wanted to do that too. She had been
told that there were a great many applicants for it, so she prepared herself. She made notes of what she
might be asked and of what she wanted to ask. When the day came, she arrived half an hour early. There
were six other people waiting to be interviewed. They looked much more confident than her. She began
to feel even more nervous. One by one, the others were called. Each of them came out looking satisfied.
Susan was the last one to be called into the interview room. She had decided by then that she had no
chance of getting the job, so she felt relaxed as she walked in; she felt that she had nothing to lose. The
three interviewers were all very serious and they didn't seem to be interested in her. She forgot all the
answers she had prepared and said the first things that came into her head. Afterwards she was sure she

been the only one who acted naturally.
