10. Are you applying for other jobs?

I am not currently being interviewed by any other companies in the industry. I have little experience in the sector; therefore I'm trying to find an entry-level employment with a reputable, encouraging company that is already established. I did not schedule any other interviews with unidentified organizations because I believe my credentials and expertise are adequate for the position you are offering.
