Full transcript
Thanks for coming in, Antoine. Before your interview at Bunnings Warehouse in Ballarat this Thursday at half past ten, let's quickly review your job search plan together.
Merci. Honnêtement, je suis un peu nerveux car mon anglais n'est pas encore très bon, surtout pour parler de mon métier.
I understand English can feel difficult in interviews. Could you tell me more about your qualifications from France, especially your electrician training and any certification you hold?
En France, j'ai travaillé quinze ans comme électricien et j'ai un certificat de qualification professionnelle, mais je ne sais pas s'il est reconnu ici.
You'll need Trades Recognition Australia to formally assess your French certification before you're allowed to work here as a fully qualified electrician.
D'accord, mais combien de temps prend cette évaluation ? J'ai peur de ne pas remplir mes obligations pendant l'attente.
While that's being processed, your job plan still requires twenty applications per fortnight, but entry-level roles like this Bunnings position definitely count too.
Très bien, je comprends pour les vingt candidatures. Mais dois-je venir à chaque rendez-vous même si je suis malade ?
If you're ever unwell, you don't need to attend in person—just call us beforehand, and bring a medical certificate so there's no penalty applied.
Je comprends, merci. J'apporterai un certificat médical si jamais je ne peux pas venir à un rendez-vous.
Good, let's confirm your next appointment for Monday the ninth of March, and please bring your assessment documents plus any original certificates you still have.
Parfait, je note le lundi neuf mars. J'apporterai mon certificat français ainsi que tous mes documents d'évaluation.

Practise it
Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The free daily dialogue on this site plays each segment at native speed, records you, and marks the information you transferred against the same categories examiners use — omissions, distortions, insertions — so you know where the marks went.
