M: Hey! There's a perfect job for you in the paper today. You might be interested.
W: Oh? What is it? What do they want?
M: Wait a minute…Ah, here it is. The European Space Agency. It's recruiting translators.
W: The European Space Agency?
M: Well, That is what it says. They need an English translator to work from French or German.
W: So they need a degree in French or German, I suppose. Well, I've got that. What's more? I've plenty of experience. What else are they asking for?
M: Just that. A university degree, and 3 or 4 years experience as a translator in a professional environment. They also say, the person should have a lively and inquiring mind, effective communication skills, and the ability to work individually, or as a part of the team.

M: It's said to be negotiable. It depends on the applicant's education and experience. In addition to basic salary, there's a list extra benefits. Have a look yourself.
