interview

Hi,

I have to reply my recruiter. Are the sentences correct in English?:

-At 1:30 on Thursday sounds fine to me.
Where can we meet? / Where do you want me to come?

Thanks!

Better: Thursday at 1:30 sounds fine to me. Many people speak with the number first, as in the following sentence, but it is more awkward in writing: 1:30 Thursday sounds fine to me. This is also quite natural: Where do you want me to meet you?

Can I also write: Where shall we meet?

Does it sound better?
