Look at the one who is being interviewed

In a job interview.

Bram : Look at the one who is being interviewed. He
is very confident in answering all the
questions. I think he has a job experience
before this.

Joni : Maybe you’re right. The way he appears and
he acts shows that he has a lot of job experience.
By the way, how is your feeling now?

Bram : To tell the truth, I’m very nervous and
worried that I will fail in this interview. You
see, I haven’t had a job experience at all.

Joni : So am I. Seeing a confident man like him
makes me down. I feel that my performance
is much worse than his.

Bram : Anyway, feeling pessimistic won’t help us now.
So, be optimistic!

Joni : Good idea!
