|
|
. Hello,
In my study of a business English example letter, I'd like to discuss a hypothetical interview invitation. For example, if I receive an interview invitation for Friday the 11th of May, I reply in this way:
| Quote: |
Dear Mr xxxxxx:
Thank you very much for the opportunity of a personal interview. I will be delighted to meet Mr xxxxx and Mr yyyyyy in your Verona office at 5:00 pm on [date].
Yours sincerely,
xxxxxx |
I hope to understand your correction.
Thankyou,
Vincenzo _________________ -------------------------------------- Feel free to correct all mistakes in my post, please. . _________________ Native English teacher at Mister Micawber's |

Thank Mister Micawber,
Sometimes it is discouraging to see how many error are made. Anyhow, as required from the example mail, you must propose suitable hour (from 5:00 pm example), saying that you have a previous meeting in Milano. What do you think about something similar?
N.B. she is a woman, probably a segretary

I look forward to hearing form you.

. The way your original letter read, I thought it was the employer who proposed the hour; I therefore used 'will' to express your absolute consent.

Dear Ms. xxxxx,
Thank you very much for the opportunity of a personal interview. I would be delighted to meet Mr. xxxx and Mr. yyyy in your Verona office, and I am available any time from 16:30 on the 11th of May, since I have an earlier meeting in Milan at 12:00 noon on that day.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely, |
