Nam: Really?
Mai: She told me to focus on my studies. She advised me and my brother not to look for jobs until we have finished university. She also offered to do all the housework for us so that we have more time to study.

Mai: I think so, too. It`s getting more and more difficult to get a good job nowadays.
Nam: Yes, employers usually look for qualifications and relevant experience. They also want job applicants to be able to demonstrate their skills and qualities.

Mai: The job interview is also very important. Only the best candidate is recruited. Sometimes there are even two or three rounds interviews!
Nam: Yes, then new employees have to go through an initial period of probation when employer will assess their performance and provide some training. If everything goes well, they will be confirmed as regular employees.
