work during their school or university holidays. Some
jobs might require you to fill in a form and hand in a
CV, other business owners might interview 2______
(APPLY) and offer them a job as soon as they come in
to ask if there are any positions available, especially if
they need workers quickly. Popular summer jobs
include working in a shop or restaurant. It seems easy
but it is important to be careful when choosing where
to work. Some 3______ (EMPLOY) expect their
workers to carry on non-stop all day. Another
