Task I

You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.

Write at least 150 words.

You do NOT need to write any addresses.

Begin your letter as follows:

Dear………………………

You were supposed to go on an interview in a few weeks, but you have since found out you cannot go on the date arranged.
Write a letter to the potential employer. In your letter
• Tell them why you need to move the interview time
• Ask to change the interview date
• Explain that you are still interested in being interviewed for the job

Dear Sir,

I am writing this letter to request for rescheduling of my interview that I was supposed to attend this Thurday.

It has been 3 weeks now that I am suffering from viral fever. My doctor has prescribed me for a bedrest upto a period of four weeks, which has left me with no other alternative other than being confined within the four walls of my room. As you can see, I can't even venture out of my home as the disease is highly contagious.

Therefore, I would be grateful if you can postpone my interview date to anytime time after a week as I would be fully recovered by then. Also I have been preparing for the job whenever I was able to during my time at home as I am really looking forward to having a great professional conversation with you.

Hoping to receive your reply with the new date of my interview.

Yours faihfully,

Ashim
