- Hi, Professor Smith. Thank you for agreeing to see me.
- That’s no problem, what would you like to discuss today?
- First of all, I would like to say that I have really enjoyed learning from you and feel I have gained a lot of insight and knowledge because of your lectures.
- Thank you, that is very kind of you.
- I am here today because I would like to know if you are going to need an intern for the upcoming semester. I know I would learn a lot more working directly with you and it would be great experience for me.
- Yes, I will need an intern this year. Every student who would like the internship must fill out the application form and write a 10,000 word essay on a specific theory. You must research this theory and opposing theories and give clear reasons why you agree or disagree with the theory.
- I understand. Is there a deadline for the application.
- Yes, it must be submitted one month from now.
- Do you know if there are many other applicants?
- I don’t know about this year, but last year there were at least 20.
- Does the essay require a bibliography?
- Yes, you must include at least 10 different resources.
- OK, thank you for your time and I am looking forward to completing the application process and hopefully interning for you in the near future.
- Thank you.
