+ | ===Vilja's Interview=== |
| + | {{ViljaM|23:07, June 9, 2020 (UTC)|It had taken a lot of surprising hyping up from Mikaela (and her new bosses) for Vilja to show up, some minutes before her scheduled interview. Like any teenager, she was nervous, her stomach churning uneasily as she sat near the door, waiting for Sarah's secretary to let her know she could go in. She shakes her leg, trying to quell her nerves a little, but nothing works.}}{{Sarah|Sarah=She glances at her watch, noticing it's time for her next appointment seconds before her secretary opens her office door to let the student in. There hadn't been much interest in internships of late, but Vilja seemed enthusiastic enough to make up for several uninterested students. Quickly she pulls Vilja's application from her file cabinet before standing to greet the young lady. "Miss Mäkinen, I presume?" she says, smiling courteously and offering her hand to shake. "Please have a seat. How are you?"|time=03:23, June 11, 2020 (UTC)}}{{ViljaM|05:26, June 11, 2020 (UTC)|Vilja smiles, but it's awkward and strained as her nerves noticeably overwhelm her again. Still, she swallows and powers through, shaking Sarah's hand before taking a seat. "Yes, that's me. Good morning, ma'am," she confirms, trying her best to steel her nerves and sound confident. "I'm doing well. A bit nervous, but I suppose that's all part of the experience," she admits, with a light laugh.}}{{Sarah|Sarah="Yes, some nerves are to be expected," she says with a light laugh of her own, taking her seat again. "Your application was very thorough...lots of recommendations." She trails off slightly as she flips through Vilja's file for her notes. "So tell me a little about yourself - strengths, weaknesses, opinion on teamwork, favorite color - anything you feel is relevant."|time=06:57, June 14, 2020 (UTC)}}{{ViljaM|22:07, June 15, 2020 (UTC)|Vilja waits for Sarah to finish speaking before she takes over, feeling more and more confident with every word she utters. "My favorite color is probably emerald green. It's dark and rich, and it compliments my skin quite nicely," she grins. "But on a more serious note, my biggest strength is probably my adaptability. I've faced some problems with my parents that have resulted in me having to live under less-than-ideal circumstances, so I've learned to work with the resources I have on my person. I'm a quick thinker and fast on my feet, too. In terms of weaknesses, I would say the potentially most costing one would be my inability to trust people, least of all on a whim. So... you could say that's something that affects my teamwork, since I don't really know what to expect from other people and don't really trust their decisions. I've been working on it back at Hogwarts, with a counsellor and my professors and friends, but it doesn't come easily," she admits. Not wanting to make herself seem inept, though, she knows she needs to balance it out quickly. "Teamwork makes the dreamwork, I understand, especially in this department. I've been learning to take more risks, but typically, I trust mostly what I see and understand. I've always been more investigative than anything else."}}{{Sarah|Sarah=She nods as Vilja speaks to show she's listening, making small notes about the comment on her parents and her take on trust - just things she'll want to follow up on later. "It's great that you're working on finding a good balance there. Complete, blind trust is a ridiculous expectation, but there are times in this department where you may be asked to follow an order or trust a decision when you don't have all the details or time to find them." She can't think of any other questions that weren't covered in Vilja's application - after all, this is for a learning opportunity, not a job. "Do you have any questions for me?"|time=13:35, June 18, 2020 (UTC)}}{{ViljaM|17:52, June 20, 2020 (UTC)|Vilja had prepared for this part. "I do, actually," she nods. "When your employees came to Hogwarts to talk to us about the internship opportunities, they were really vague about what kind of experiences we'd be able to have. What would I be doing as a student intern under law enforcement? I understand there will be some things I won't be able to do, but as for the rest of it?"}}{{Sarah|Sarah="That's a great question," she says sincerely. "And they were vague intentionally. We have a vague outline for intern activities, but ultimately the experience is created to be flexible, both for schedules and for interests and abilities. It's a mixture of practical things such as clerical duties, relative research, and some basic skills training if we feel you're up to it, as well as more observation-focused things like shadowing certain employees or sitting in on Wizengamot meetings."|time=18:52, June 20, 2020 (UTC)}}{{ViljaM|01:14, June 21, 2020 (UTC)|It takes a lot of effort to not blurt out ''yes please'' immediately after Sarah finishes. Instead, she comes up with a very carefully worded, albeit awkwardly tense response. "''Yes,'' I'd be honored to do basic skills training." She has to admit, sitting in on Wizengamot sounds just as exciting. "Is it safe to presume the internship will have the same hours as a regular school day?"}}{{Sarah|Sarah="Yes it is. Not necessarily ''exactly'' the same hours, as we can work in accommodations for other things you have going on, but we aren't going to have you here at three in morning."|time=16:39, June 21, 2020 (UTC)}} |

If that's everything, you can go ahead and take a tour before you leave today. Auror Azoulai volunteered, I believe, so I can have her come and get you." She pulls out a fresh piece of paper to scribble out a quick interdepartmental memo to send. "Just take anything she says about the elevators with a grain of salt."|time=02:10, June 23, 2020 (UTC)}}{{ViljaM|01:39, June 24, 2020 (UTC)|"Oh, gosh, should I be worried?" Vilja jokes with a light laugh. The idea of getting a tour is so beyond her that her stomach is a wreck. It's the good kind, though.

"We can talk freely now, to an extent. If you are lying to me, Ferlen, I don't want to know. When the investigation starts, they will be looking into her family members, although how closely they look depends on how much the minister cares that someone escaped.
