Strategies and Applications Directions Listen to the passage. Then do numbers 1 through 3.
Say One day, Kimberly met her friend Joe in the school cafeteria.
“Hi, Kimberly. What have you been doing recently,” asked Joe.
“I’ve been looking everywhere for a job,” Kimberly said. “But it’s tough. I haven’t found a thing.”
“Did you know they put ads for jobs on the Internet now?” Joe asked.
“No,” Kimberly said. “How does it work?”
“You fill out one application,” Joe said. “Then you can send it online to anybody who’s got a job listing. That’s how I got my job at Molino’s grocery store.”
Kimberly was surprised. “Really? But I don’t know if anyone would hire me,” she said. “I tried filling out an application for a job at the video store down the street, but I don’t have much experience except for baby-sitting, and of course I don’t have my high school diploma yet.”
Joe said, “You should mention the volunteer work you did at the hospital. That counts as experience.”
“I also work in the school office sometimes. I guess that counts, too. Does it cost anything to apply online to those want ads?” Kimberly said.
“No,” Joe said.
“All right,” Kimberly said. “I’ll go to the library tonight.”
