Interviewer (I): Welcome to your
favourite weekly program “Interviews with VIPs”, here, in Radio Sky. Today we will
have the pleasure to interview Steve Jobs, the Apple CEO, Leonardo DiCaprio,
the famous actor, and Shakira, a singer. But first things first. Welcome Steve
Jobs.
Steve Jobs (SJ): Good afternoon.
I am happy to be here, but I must recognise I am nervous as this is my first interview
I this radio.
I: Do not worry,
we only want to ask you some questions and that you respond as briefly as
possible.
SJ: Okay, I am
prepared.
I: Lots of people
wonder what a person needs to be an Apple employee.
SJ: In Apple we search
people with team player skills, multi-tasking skills, good time-management skills
and good at problem solving skills. In Apple, we work in project teams and
usually a person is involved in more than just one project with all that this
implicates. It is important to have as many skills as possible, also good
people skills.
I: All your employees
match saying that you possess leadership skills, but you are not good with numbers…
SJ: Well, I try
to get involved in as many projects I can and encourage my workers to be
creative and open minded. I try to create a good work environment and to be close
to those people who help Apple to be what it is today. But usually I am wrong
on predictions in product sales.
I: Tomorrow,
Apple will launch the new iPhone 12 XRS Max Pro Plus in the annual keynote,
what are your expectations?
SJ: We hope to
sell a million iPhones during the first month, and after, half a million per
month…
I: A million iPhones?!
These are a lot of iPhones! What will the price be?
SJ: The starting
price for the base model will be three thousand dollars.
I: But it is too expensive.
SJ: We are not trying to create a cheap phone; in Apple we search the quality of all our iPhones without looking at the final price.
I: And you think people would buy this?
SJ: Absolutely. Apple is the company for those who want the best quality on their hands.
I: Thank you Steve for answering all our questions and good luck for tomorrow.
SJ: Thank you. It has been a pleasure.
