Talking About Work Experience

4.8

Lily: Hi, Ben! Did you have a good day at work?

Ben: Hi, Lily! Yes, it was busy but good. I’m learning a lot at my new job.

Lily: That’s great! What kind of work do you do?

Ben: I work in a café. I serve coffee and clean tables. It’s not easy, but it’s fun.

Lily: That sounds interesting. Do you think work experience is important?

Ben: Yes, I do. It helps you learn new skills and meet new people. What about you?

Lily: I agree. I worked in a shop last summer. I learned how to talk to customers and handle money.

Ben: That’s useful. Did you like working in the shop?

Lily: Yes, I did. It was hard sometimes, but I enjoyed it. Do you think work experience helps with future jobs?

Ben: Definitely. Employers like to see that you have experience. It shows you can work hard.

Lily: That’s true. I think it also helps you decide what kind of job you want in the future.

Ben: Yes, I agree. For example, I like working with people, so maybe I’ll work in a restaurant or hotel.

Lily: That’s a good idea. Well, good luck with your job, Ben!

Ben: Thanks, Lily! Good luck to you too. See you later!

Lily: See you, Ben!
