"I have Jane finishing this job."
Does this mean that, I am using Jane's time to get the job done?
"I have Jane finish this job."
This means that (Simple present tense), I get the work done by Jane
"I will have Jane finish this job."
Is this the future tense.
This job will be finished by Jane. I will have Jane to finish this. |

Halfway: not complete; in the middle
You could say:
The development is halfway.

Hi Suresh

"Do you have interest in changing a job?" -
Answer -"Yes, I have".
Is this correct? |
No, and the wording of the question is unnatural. Here are some different examples:
Q: Do you have a challenging job?
A: Yes, I do.
Q: Have you changed jobs?
A: Yes, I have.
Q: Are you interested in changing jobs?
A: Yes, I am.

Do you like it?
Yes, I do.
Is this correct? |
Yes.

- He quit school halfway through the semester.
- He refused to pay what I was asking for the car, so I met him halfway. (= I compromised with him on the price.)

"The left over functions will be finished by tomorrow" -Is this correct?
I want to know the usage of - "Left over" |
The various forms of "left over" are frequently used in connection with food.
- VERB: There wasn't any pizza left over for me. (The pizza was completely eaten by everyone else.)
- ADJ: If you're hungry, there is some leftover meatloaf in the fridge.
- NOUN: We had leftovers for dinner.
