英语面试后撰写感谢信的技巧(2)

写完后，尽快寄出，或者直接亲手递交；传真也是可取的方式，首先要确定你有雇主的传真号。如果你一直用电子邮件方式和对方联系，发电子邮件也是可以的，或者当你则认为打印稿不能及时到达雇主手中，这个方式是不错的选择。在word文档中打出感谢信是个好方法，这样可以避免拼写错误和语法问题，然后拷贝粘贴到电子邮件中。使用常规邮件，传真，或者电子邮件，取决于哪种方式最合适当时的情况。如果在你发出感谢信之前，你就得到了工作，你需要在感谢信中向雇主表达对面试和工作的感激之情。当然你可以选择接受或者拒绝工作邀请。
Your follow up phone call depends on the time frame you deduced from your interview question. Let’s say five days after the interview you decide to call. Ask to speak with the person who interviewed you. You should be polite and professional, restate your interest in the position but don’t sound desperate! Ask if they need any further information and if you are still under consideration. Find out when you can expect a final decision.
什么时候该打跟进电话询问进展呢？这取决于你从面试官那里得来的答案了。比方说，面试后五天，你打算打个电话询问情况。你需要求和面试官通话，态度礼貌，措辞合理，不要流露出焦急的情绪。询问他们是否需要更多信息，问清楚目前你是否在就职考虑之中，以及多久能得到最终答复。
It’s possible the company may have specifically asked you not to contact them but to wait for them to come back to you. In this case ask when you can expect to hear from them. If you have heard nothing, wait a couple of days and then call or email the interviewer. Ask politely about the status of your job application.
公司也有可能会让你不要再联系他们，而是等他们给你答复。这种情况下，问一下什么时候可以得到他们的通知。等两天之后，你可以再打电话或发邮件询问面试官，礼貌的询问你的状况。
