Directions: Read the following passage and answer the questions followed.
Secretaries who receive visitor are called receptionists. In a small firm, the receptionist may have to receive visitors, do some typewriting and clerical work, and operate the switchboard as well. In a large firm, on the other hand, a receptionist normally does nothing apart from receiving visitors and making appointments and travel arrangements.
There are different tasks and procedures involved in receiving visitors with and appointment and without an appointment. At the beginning of each day the reception office should be notified of all the appointments made and the movements of executives, so that receptionist is able to act without undue hesitancy when visitors arrive.
On arrival, visitors are usually asked to sign a visitors book of enter particulars of their visits in a register of callers. This provides a useful permanent record of all visitors to company.
A visitor from another company may introduce himself/herself by offering the receptionist a business card which provides his/her name, company and position. If no card is offered, the receptionist should ask the visitor for those details and make note of them.
If a secretary is required to meet a caller when her boss is not in, a note of call should be typed and given to the boss when he or she returns to the office.
