SCENE: GREY SLOAN MEMORIAL HOSPITAL
(Andrew walks down the hallway carrying Amelia Shepherds scans when he sees a woman in a pantsuit entering the locker room)
CUT TO THE LOCKER ROOM
(The blonde, blue eyes woman in a two-piece burgundy pantsuit with a black v neck shirt and black heels enters the empty locker room observing her possible workplace with awe and anxiety. Andrew enters the room to see what's going on)
Andrew: Can I help you?
Woman: (Turns around to Andrew) Oh uh sorry I'm uh-
Andrew: You shouldn't be in here; the waiting room is down the hall.
Woman: I'm not a patient or a family member I'm...I'm here for my match interview.
Andrew: Okay so what are you doing here? The waiting room is also for interviewees.
Woman: (Nervous) I-I know, I know I shouldn't be here but there were like 20 people ahead of me and I decided to walk around for a bit and see my new workplace. Or potential workplace assuming that I kill this interview and don't make an idiot of myself. I would wait out there with the others but walking around is better than sitting down and googling 'What to do if you don't get matched anywhere?'
(The woman chuckles trying to make it funny but it comes out nervous filled with anxiety causing Andrew to look at her concerned)
Andrew: Nervous?
Woman: (Sighs in despair) Is it that obvious? Of course, is it I ramble when I'm nervous or I punch things it depends on the occasion, I guess.
Andrew: (Grins) Well rambling is better than punching especially if your gonna become a surgeon. I'm sorry but you really can't be here and I've got scans to give to my boss so...
Woman: (Nods) Yeah sure I get it.
(The woman starts to walk to the door when Andrew takes pity on her and decides to help relive her stress)
Andrew: Their looking for human beings.
Woman: (Stops and turns around with a confused face) What?
Andrew: This hospital doesn't just hire good doctors; they hire people who can act like regular humans to patients. Speak clearly, not too loud, and not too low and always keep eye contact. Tell them a meaningful story on why you decided to go into medicine, if it involves saving a life that'll get you some points. Don't mention your looking into other programs because that'll make them think this place is dead last on your list.
Woman: I wouldn't dream of it, what else?
Andrew: Um don't kiss ass but subtly mention you admire their work so that you'll butter them up. Don't smile too much unless you want them to think you're a serial killer and last but not least do not humble brag, they hate that.
Woman: (Nods) Okay no problem I'll just normal brag.
(They both chuckle)
Woman: (Grins) I should probably head back to the lobby thanks for the advice doctor...
Andrew: (Hold his hand out) DeLuca, Andrew DeLuca.
Woman: (Shakes his hand) I'm Amber. Amber Karev.
(Amber turns to leave as Andrew's grin falls as he instantly recognizes her last name)
AN HOUR LATER AT THE LOBBY
(Amber Karev is sitting in the lobby anxiously waiting for someone to call her for the interview)
