[For Hal] This is just a test.

With a few months gone by in a blur of moving and dogs and Samantha, Karen figured it was a wonder she had any time or brain power left over to do the few actual duties she had. The radio had sort of fallen to her and it generally ran itself, but there was the occasional audition slash interview needed when someone showed interest.

The radio room was empty -- most of the show slots were empty now, which was something she wanted to take care of -- and it was small, but it was quiet and comfortable. She knew enough now after watching a few shows and playing some music a few hours a day to feel comfortable running things.

This part, she at least had experience in. Interviewing someone for a role - despite it being nowhere near business related - was actually in her area of expertise. It was an expertise very rarely used now, but Karen was taking pluses wherever she could. There were too many minuses in her island life, and though Nick and Sam made her feel ridiculously lucky, she needed a few more positives.

Hal has been a great fan of the radio in both of his beings -- night and day, one following the other -- but right now, "Good Hal", as Tom might endeavour to call him, needs something to occupy his time. At home, he wrote letters to You and Yours, now he's in a position to be the one reading the news.

As such, he's taken great care to type up a CV before he arrives at the radio station, presenting it along with the applicable cover letter for the position. "Ms. Filippelli," he greets with a bow of his head. "A pleasure."

Karen hadn't been expecting the resume. Or a resume at all; it seemed like a relic, but it did enough to immediately put Hal in a positive light. She stood and gave him a bright, pleased smile. "It's a pleasure to meet you too. And just Karen is fine, really."

She gestured to an empty chair across from hers as she sat down and skimmed over the resume. "I have to admit, the fact that you have a resume is a pretty great start."

"I've always said that one should be prepared for any circumstance. Having a CV is really a dreadfully easy thing to do," Hal admits, offering her a polite smile. Now, it seems, night has ceded to day and has allowed his control to hold. He grips it as tightly as he can, refusing to let his other half come out to play during this. "I've only been on the radio itself once or twice, but I submit to programmes regularly and listen to content on a daily basis."
