Manager: Looking through your C.V., [00:00:00]
I see that you graduated from Oklahoma State University. [00:00:01]
Can you tell me what training you have had [00:00:06]
that would specifically relate to [00:00:09]
the cable television Industry?[00:00:11]
Engineer: Well, I’ve attended some conferences [00:00:14]
in this field. [00:00:16]
But the most relevant training [00:00:17]
I’ve had was in computer design. [00:00:19]
I believe I could integrate that knowledge [00:00:21]
with my college degree [00:00:23]
to design a program for your company.[00:00:25]
Manager: I see. Did you have anything specific in mind?[00:00:28]
Engineer: Well, I notice that you currently [00:00:32]
provide an on-screen TV Guide. [00:00:34]
At the moment, it just scrolls the names of [00:00:37]
the programs in a repeated loop. [00:00:39]
If you have many channels, you have to wait a long time [00:00:42]
to find the item you are interested in. [00:00:45]
I believe I could design a program that [00:00:47]
makes the guide interactive. [00:00:50]
Customers could go right to the program they want.[00:00:52]
Manager: That’s impressive. [00:00:55]
How would you make the pay?[00:00:57]
Engineer: Tie it in with the pay-per-view services, [00:01:00]
and perhaps it could be a money-maker.[00:01:02]
Manager: I see you have several good ideas. [00:01:05]
Now, I just have a few questions about your C.V. [00:01:11]
I notice that there is a five-year gap [00:01:15]
between your last job and now.[00:01:18]
Engineer: Yes, I took a break [00:01:20]
from work during that time. [00:01:22]
I had a baby, and as she was born with a handicap, [00:01:23]
I decided to suspend my career. [00:01:27]
But I have continued to keep up with the Industry [00:01:29]
through conferences and professional journals.[00:01:32]
Manager: So, you’re just starting back. [00:01:34]
Maybe you’d better tell me a little [00:01:37]
more about your experience. [00:01:39]
