As detailed below, I have to give my appreciation and comments on my attendence to the summit. Would you please check, add, delete or change in order to get a good feedback ( strengthen the vocabulary seems to be also important: I mean chose better words).

Thanks to All.

-----------------------------------------

Dear ***,

I appreciated the oppotunity this event gave me, even I had only one interview with *** {Company name} for a position in *** {Country name} as a Field Engineer which I found interesting; and late in the previous week I recieved an e-mail from *** {Country name} asking for an electronic copy of my resume since they already had a hard copy during the summit.

As I have already enrolled in a business course (for 18 months) here in London, it is not possible for me to move out and I was actually looking for future opportunity, identifing what is offred in in the job-market in my field.

It was the first time I attended this summit and I would like to thank you for all efforts you put on to make it really successeful for both companies and candidates and I hope get other oppotunities next year when I will have finished my course.

Yours sincerely,

Dear Candidate,

Thank you for your recent attendance at our Careers *** UK Recruitment Summit; we trust that you had a positive experience. With 100 companies in attendance this was the largest recruitment event for *** worldwide and company delegates provided very complementary feedback. The event was extremely successful, largely due to the excellent blend of skills and talent possessed by attending candidates like you. Many of you have already notified us of the job offers you received as a result event and we sincerely encourage all of you to continue to inform us of your interview outcomes, as you receive feedback.

We would appreciate it very much if you could spend a couple of minutes to answer the following questions:

1. Did you have any follow up interviews after the event? If yes, with which company and where?

2. Have you received any job offers as a result of attending the Careers *** Summit? If yes, from which company and what is the position?

3. Please give us any other feedback you have following the event.

We would also like to assure you that although we are not directly involved in the offer stage between yourself and our clients, we absolutely do our best to encourage our clients to finalise their decisions in an efficient manner. Because there is quite a large amount of variation in individual client hiring practices and timelines, there is no fixed period before an offer is made. That said, we encourage you (as we would with any job interview) to keep in touch with your interview contacts based on the arrangements made during your discussions with them.

We do appreciate your feedback and hope that through the Careers ***, you and our clients have found a good match in each other.

Kind regards,

*** Manager

They have told you to confirm attendence at this job interview, not just the summit, which you haven't done.

"I would be very pleased to attend the interview with FMC SOFEC at the summit. I have attached to this e-mail an up-to-date copy of my resume."

Would you please help on an e-mail answer to a job interview.

Recently I have been invited to the africain summit scheduled for May 2007 by an Africain Organisation in London. They asked me to send my resume to an employer (Company) which will be participating to the summit, as you can see the e-mail below. I would like to to thank them for giving me this opportunity and to their consideration and confirme my attendence, and send my resume. I probably need to tell them that I write to them according to the Organisation which invited me to get in touch and send my resume to them. I also need to thank the organisation for their efforts in giving my application companies (employers)

I would be very grateful if some one could help me

I have got a job interview this Wednesday,and I just want write a thanks letter.Pls help check it,Thanks advance!By the way: I think the American manager is not satisfy with my English presentation,is it proper if I mention it?

Dear Manager,

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to discuss the position of Test Engineer with you *** and *** on this Wednesday(If I spell wrong name, Iâm sorry for it and I hope you can correct spelling mistakes by mailing me). Our meeting helped me to better understand your company and reaffirmed my belief that this is the organization I would like to work for.

I would like you to know that I am extremely interested in the Test Engineer position we discussed that day.Iâm a hardworking, initiative,self-motivated and a competent young man, a fast self-learner and easily mix around with new people. My major is also closely related to the job requirements. I am confident that I can easily pick up any Programming Language, electronics theory and other in a short space of time, accomplishing this during the few weeks needed to complete the hiring process. I would therefore be ready to undertake your work as your requirements from any agreed start date.These are all qualities that I believe will contribute to making me a valuable long-term employee.

As Iâve seen in the interview, I would like to say I love the group of people and have the enthusiasm to work with them. It has made me very keen to become a part of your continuing success.

Iâm optimistic about my life and my future. I know the job market nowadays is full of competitions, however, pressure and challenge is welcome. For I can work well under pressure and I also have the confidence and competence to do good jobs.

I hope to hear from you soon, and would be pleased to meet with you again for more information about me.

Sincerely,

***

For your second paragraph you could say something like

Thank you for inviting me to an interview on (date). Unfortunately I will not be able to attend on that date but will be available on any date after ..... I apologise for any inconvenience this causes.

Re: the difference.

I was asked the exact same question by my friend from Slovakia.

To be "on time" is usually very important, usually refers to a specific deadline or arrangement, and usually comes at the end of the sentence.

For example:

"I must be at the job interview on time."

"I must hurry, otherwise I won't get to work on time."

"Tomorrow I've got a date. I must be on time."

"The train isn't on time."

"You're two minutes late! Why aren't you on time?"

To be "in time" could be less important and normally comes before the end of the sentence.

For example:

"I want to be home in time to watch the football."

"I want to get to the pub in time for last orders."

"I need to be at the station in time for the last train."

something I wrote

Projected into the Future...

While all the while up till then having been convinced that she knew where she was, where she was going and how to get there, at that moment the whole system of certainty and security collapsed. She realized she couldnât recognize the surroundings, and as much as she tried to go back the way she had come, it was useless. What happened was completely illogical and beyond reason. She had simply gone on those streets and the road just had to take her to the school. She knew those streets... had known, or rather had the impression she knew them... The school was nowhere in sight. The streets were unrecognizable. They were indeed like a maze, yet she couldnât have just lost her way as simply as that. There were no people around, so it was impossible for her to ask for directions, to understand where she had gone wrong...
It was sunny, warm yet shady, as there were lots of trees on those streets... She paused by a white fence of a villa and started to look in her bag for the cell phone. She felt a bit ashamed for having to take that as a solution, to phone her mother and ask her about what to do, as she had got lost... But she had no other logical and possible solution... One of the streets had taken her out to the bus station, but it was not the bus station she thought it should be, as it was a bus station she had never seen before and which did not help her as a landmark so that she could understand where she was... Just like many other things around her, it told her that she was lost and that this was a fact.
The bright summer day made her judgement be blinded by a strong light, and her thinking was sleepy because of the heat... or so it seemed to her... This was a reasonable explanation for her having got lost... Now sheâd be late for the job interview and the beginning was already spoilt... first impression and punctuality, which were usually her strong point... and it was her first job... or would have been...
But when she took her mobile phone out of her bag, she noticed that the screen glass of the phone had fallen off, so she had to look for it in the bag and to press it back, hoping the phone still worked. It seemed to be still working, but when she entered the code, a message appeared on the screen saying that the code was no longer valid. And the date displayed a year way forward into the future, something like 2600 or 2860! Her first reaction was to think that her phone didnât work properly any more, it had broken down exactly when she needed it the most... Or had she truly been projected into the future? She didnât know what to believe any more, she was at the same time amazed, panicked, worried, upset... and who knows what other feelings she couldnât find a name for at the moment...
Her first reaction was to look for a public phone, wondering if she had any phone card left in her bag, searching desperately for one while walking and searching for a public phone. She spotted a public phone, but she soon realized she had been feeling relieved in vain, as it was clearly out of order and couldnât be used. It had been destroyed, its wires had been pulled out and it stood there as if reminding her that there was no way out and she was hopelessly trapped there... where she didnât even know where exactly she was, concerning both time and space...
She had nothing left to do but wander on the streets which looked in no way familiar... and her purpose while doing so was finding another public phone which could be used... A phone... she must find a phone... and then things may get a little cleared up, she might find out whether she had really been projected into the future... And if so, she hoped she could establish a phone connection with someone in the past... And if she had been projected into the future, how did that happen, and when precisely, had it happened because of the streets or because of her cell phone, or how was that possible???... And was she ever going to get back to her own time, how was she going to do that, and what will she do if she were to be trapped in there for the rest of her life???...
She couldnât even go back to that bus station, where there was a certain way out of the maze of streets... she was still in the maze and wandering looking desperately for a phone and for some street names, which werenât written anywhere or she hadnât noticed them...
While having got back to the broken public phone and staring at it hopelessly, she heard someone behind her... Finally, someone else, for during her wanderings she had seen no passers-by... It was a man, dark-haired and dressed in black, projected into the future just like her, who was apparently on his way to work when he arrived there. How long had he been there? Who could tell? Time there was difficult to tell. Indeed, she looked at her watch and she saw it showed some crazy numbers...
The man told her that all public phones heâd seen there were broken...
That was it. No formal introductions. No names. Only the implied âI am also projected into the future, and lost.â And maybe that was enough. She saw no need for formality and no use for it anyway given the situation they were stuck in... She had looked at his face without seeing it, that is without really noticing it, with its features and everything... just like when sheâd be too nervous when meeting new people and hearing their names without actually understanding what she heard or remembering neither their names nor their faces...
She still hoped to find a public phone. That was, she believed, the closest to a solution. Then sheâd know more about her situation and see if it was worth it to feel truly hopeless.
Wandering like that together, she realized that she sort of recognized a street. They had somehow managed to get out of that maze of streets, but so what, a new maze awaited for them probably... as the streets were completely different from what they used to know, the whole town looked differently as they were a big distance into the future... But that street reminded her of one close to the University where she had studied... the street where a bookshop selling old, used books was... Some passers-by, though rare... When they saw an outside vendor, selling jewels, the man offered to buy some jewel for her... as a souvenir of the happening, he said, half serious half humorously...
If they ever found a way out, she thought. She had a bad feeling about being stuck there with no way out. She wondered what her parents and other people would make of her absence, sheâd probably be reported as missing...
Of course the man offered the vendor money from their time, it was a huge amount of banknotes which puzzled the vendor who said that it said on the ticket how much the jewel cost. The man said, puzzled, that the jewel was far more worth than that and he thought it was a mistake. The vendor said that it wasnât. From what the vendor said, they could infer that the value of money in the country had fallen down after having joined the European Union...
Soon she felt like the phone was less and less of a solution. She was afraid that her last and possible only hope of ever getting back would crash. It seemed to her like it was impossible to establish contact with someone in the past, it seemed more and more a crazy idea as she contemplated it in her mind... All the people she used to know were without a doubt dead judging by the year sheâd seen displayed on her mobile phone and she should have been long gone herself... and if so, how could she hope for finding a job, a place to stay, if undoubtedly her papers must say that sheâd been dead for some time...
Indeed, the more she reflected on her situation she realized the sheer absurdity of it, and what made it more absurd was that although it would have been impossible and absurd to happen it actually did and she was in the middle of living it...
She regretted not being able to know how her life would have been like, had she still lived during her time... but at the same time she knew, or rather supposed, that she had a past but she didnât know anything about it but she knew about the future, not her future, but a future which was now her present... a present-future away from everything and everybody she knew... And if so, did she actually exist there in the present-future?... Hard to say... These thoughts were tangling up in her mind and exhausting her... all this confusion...
It seemed in a way to be a conspiracy of some kind... like somebody â heaven knows who â having made sure that all links with the past were broken to them... yes, those public phones and their own cell phones which had been destroyed and gone out of order... Who and how, and last but not least, why? were the basic questions she kept asking herself... all the while knowing there was little hope â if any at all - for ever finding an answer...

***

A voice called her. She felt as if she had awaken from some light, brief sleep. She was sitting in an armchair. She was told she had been accepted for the job and that she will start in a few weeks. She was confused, but she tried to seem self-possessed. She tried figuring out where she was, and she soon realized she had just passed the interview... without knowing how it went on! She thanked the principal and she seemed confused on how to find her way out, but the principal found nothing strange about that, as she had never been there before...
Outside, she checked her bag. The cell phone was ok, seemed like it had never been broken and the date was a normal one... She phoned home to tell her parents the good news...
Still trying to understand what had happened to her, she spotted in her bag the pack in which she knew the jewel had been put. She hadnât got a chance to open it and see how the jewel looked like... and regretted not having looked more careful at the manâs face... She wonât recognize him and maybe she will never meet him again, and he was the only one with whom she could talk freely about the strange adventure... The jewel was a gold horse and it had a gold chain to be placed on... This stood as a proof that it had happened for real... She didnât know anything about the dark man, nothing at all, not even where he worked, no name at all, let alone a phone number and an address... not even a clear-cut image of his physical appearance... Also her not knowing how the interview went on and how she found the school and went inside was a proof of the reality of the strange adventure... and she would have liked to talk to somebody about it, but now she had to keep it to herself and imagine how the interview could have went on... And yes, she was glad she was back. And deep down she hoped that maybe the man could recognize her, maybe he had taken a better look at her... maybe he could remember as well what they had been through, and maybe their paths will cross again some day... hopefully in this world, not that of the far-away future...
Her thoughts were scattered all over her mind... She remembered not having found an answer as to how, and why did all that happen... Or who did that? She was never going to find out anything certain, now she was sure of it. Deep down she hoped she wonât participate in any other such adventure... unless sheâd still return... But considering that certainty was something clearly out of order there... Anyway, it was not up to her to decide... She felt like a toy someone had been playing a crazy game with...
The sun was shining brightly and the streets were quiet. They looked familiar...

Inspiration

Before, it had been different. She would have thought for long periods of time and the whole sentence would have been made with great efforts... concerning both the manner of expressing her ideas and the way she would visualize the happenings... She would have stood there in front of the blank page and would have had the feeling that she was actually staring at her own mind.
Things had changed... and apparently for the best, or so she hoped... she hoped this was going to last long enough for her to make use of this luck...
She sat down at her laptop and the story was there, right in front of her, she only needed to express it, but that came to her fast as well, and so the only thing she needed was her fingers to move quickly enough on the keyboard to be able to seize the whole wonder... and put it on paper before it disappeared as fast as it had appeared...
She typed the sentences as they came to her mind, it was as though she wrote her thoughts as they were being thought out at that very moment... Thoughts were flowing and so were sentences on her screen... Naturally and spontaneously... Without any effort...
Thoughts and emotions were racing through her mind and psyche... and all this was recorded on paper in Microsoft Word. Her fingers were racing effortlessly on the keyboard, as if she were playing the piano... She didnât need to make any effort for documentation regarding her characterâs psychology, it all came natural as she could identify with her character as if she were playing a part... She was afraid she would wake up from her trance and never be able to finish what she had started writing.
She stood there watching in deep fascination what she had written, the sentences and words standing there like objects which had been put into order... This made her think she had not lost time in vain, fantasizing, but instead she had created something which was there to be seen and which existed. And others would be able to see it as well.

Time, Speeding Along The Highway

Lights on, lights off, lights on, lights off... and so on... day by day... till a whole month passes... soon itâs summer again, and I try to remember how it was like last year...
Events which happened a few weeks or months ago seem like theyâve happened in another life, sometime far away...
Yet it seems like only yesterday that Iâve just passed the exam for admission at university now that I have only recently graduated... When have these four years passed?
When two hours at the swimming pool pass as if they were two minutes, I feel like asking time to slow down a little, to ask him to use his car breaks now and then...
And this yearâs summer... was it nothing but a dream? It seems it was only an illusion... for itâs autumn now and the summer is far-away, lost and locked up somewhere in tangled memories lurking chaotically in the past, maybe just a bit distorted as it is lying in remembrance.
I ride in a car driven by Time... and Time sometimes drives so fast and most often we donât slow down to admire the landscapes... I must keep them in remembrance, but most often they come out distorted by memory, if they donât get lost altogether.
And those scenes I witness while Time drives along the highway... we shall never truly go back, so Iâll never know what some people whom we left behind became... or sometimes I am left wondering, if some people who no longer exist have ever existed at all, if they hadnât been mere illusions... if I havenât been dreaming all the while, during Timeâs crazy race along the highway, having grown too tired of watching the landscape from that speed...
Not being able to intervene in some scenes, but just having no choice other than letting them pass by me, letting them happen, taking no active part in them, while being in the backseat of the car driven by Time... wondering where Time will choose to stop... even for a little while...

Dear teachers,

When we studied English at school, we learned that to go out with a girl/ boy is having a "date". And, to meet someone for business or to go to a job interview is called an "appointment". What about meeting a friend who may be my best friend/ buddy? Say, if I want to see him at three. Can I go like "I have a meeting with my friend at three."? This simple question has tasked my brain for a while.

Please advise.

'I have a meeting with my friend at three'.

Your sentence is fine.
