Employer want to have a chat thru phone for interview
0 Dear teachers and friends, 02 br
00 A couple of days ago, I received an email from Company ABC asking me if I’m interested with Engineer position in their company. She said that she have a headcount for engineer position and wondering if I’m interested to pursue. She also asking me whether I’m doesn’t mind to switch into more operational role since my career’s background more to consultation and project. And if I want to pursue, when I’m available for phone call. Here is my email draft to her. 02 br
00 Dear Ms. Name, 02 br
00 Thanks for your email. I really appreciate that. My apologies for my late reply. (or should I say sorry for the late reply? And put any reasons for that?) Yes it’s true. For the past 1 year, my career is more to consultation and project. It’s a really different from operational role which is I involved while working as a Engineer at Company XYZ three years ago. However, still I enjoyed both works and it involved a different set skills. I would be glad to have a chat with you. Could you advice me of a convenient time for you? May I suggest today at 2.00 pm? 02 br
00 I am looking forward to hearing from you soon. 02 br
00 Thanks and best regards, 02 br

0 Hi Hampeh, 02 br 02 br 00 A "chat" is far too casual a word - this is an interview and you should consider it as such. 02 br 02 br 00 If it was only a couple days ago, then don't apologize for your "late response" - it was a weekend, after all. Do NOT delay in replying next time - they will think you are not serious about the job.

00 A "chat" is far too casual a word - this is an interview and you should consider it as such.

00 For first name and last name is quite confusing. Some people put first name in front of their name while other put in the back. As example for Chinese name. It’s quite confusing. Is there any guide how to identify their first name and last name. 02 br

0 I can't help you if the person is in an Asian country where this is the practice. If it is an American or European company/person, then the family name is second and the given name is first. If you cannot tell, then just put both names in the order it was given to you, without a title. I've seen many letters here to "Mary Smith" in which the person starts with "Dear Miss Mary," and that would n
