When the young woman stepped inside, Alexander offered her a small and quick grin before gesturing toward a seat on the opposite side of his desk. "Take a seat, please," he said. Then he nodded toward the chair for extra emphasis. Listening to her, he couldn't help but grin again. She was young, and so...new to the adult world. She reminded him of how Sierra might be in a few years, only his daughter would likely be a lot less timid.

"Miss Manning," he finally said, with a nod of realization. He'd seen her application. They only hired those most qualified, and it seemed to him that she had been. "You're welcome, however, have a bit more confidence in yourself. We wouldn't have hired you without the skills you brought along, after all." He nodded again. "Well it's good that you showed up and seem enthusiastic about the job. Tell me, Miss Manning, do you take good notes?"

OOC for everyone: I will be away on leave for about a week starting this Tuesday. Please have patience with me in replying in my office, and as soon as I am able to return, I'll check back and reply if need be.

Kyle did immediately what she was told - well, not immediately immediately first she walked to the seat opposite Minister Greingoths desk. Really if she'd just sat down on the floor kneeling like a dog - well that would just do wonders for her standing as a sane person at the ministry.

Though you could argue she was really obedient.

She was flustered, but she immdeidately smiled over to the Minister as he spoke to her, paled, and nodded her lips in a firm line. How could he tell she was so nervous?

Oh maybe because she was as white as the papers on his desk? "Yes sir, I'll be sure to be more confident." She spoke quietly, but when he asked if she took good notes she couldn't help but beam. She'd taken notes like a champion note taker - if they had an Olympic sport of note taking she would take gold. "Yes, sir, I must say I do take quite good of notes" she was being a little bit modest but modesty was good right? She decided quite quickly to divulge more. "I always took detailed notes especially in your wife's course Potions because certain things need to be followed to the T and if they aren't well, there can be grave consequences especially with potions making." She smiled.

Grim as the statement was she was showing her ~~neurosis~~ utter need for good notes. Good notes were the difference between a passing grade and a failing grade - and a failing grade was the difference between someone who was and someone who wasn't a Ravenclaw or someone equally as smart as one.
