- Three or Four class members form an interview panel for a general clerical position.
- One class member is the interviewee.
- The rest of the class forms a "fish-bowl" and is asked to keep notes on the performance of the interviewee.
- Each member of the inetrview panel asks a question in turn (up to five questions).
- The interviewee answers the questions in turn.
- The process is repeated with a different panel and interviewee as time allows.
- The fish-bowl votes on which candidate will be awarded the job.

Notes
|
Each interview should last about five minutes, so the process can easily fill a single period, or half a period as desired. The lesson can be used together with work on CV's, application forms, and so on.
