OK, this one looks interesting … listen … This application is from Orson Barnes, who lives in Birmingham. He’s applying for the post of Publicity Manager with Happy Holidays.

He’s 32 years old, and he’s got a degree in economics from Manchester University. It was a five-year course, and as part of his studies he did a work placement for a year with a small telecommunications company in Spain. His first job after he left university was with XL Holidays, and he worked there for four years. After three years he was promoted to the position of Operations Assistant and he was in charge of three people. For the last three years he’s been working for Sky Airlines. He’s responsible there for Marketing. In addition to his degree, he’s got a qualification in Russian. He’s been studying Italian since July, too, but he hasn’t taken any exams in it yet. He’s also done a course in human resources and one in business law. He says that he’s enjoyed his time at Sky Airlines, but he now feels the need for a new experience. He sounds good. What do you think?
