Answer to Question 1

Answer: C
Explanation: C) After all your interviews, you may find that you need to write a letter declining a job offer. Use the techniques for negative messages. Open warmly, state the reasons for refusing the offer, decline the offer explicitly, and close on a pleasant note that expresses gratitude. By taking the time to write a sincere, tactful letter, you leave the door open for future contact.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B
Explanation: B) When you receive a job offer you want to accept, reply within five days. Begin by accepting the position and expressing thanks. Identify the job you're accepting. In the next paragraph, cover any necessary details. Conclude by saying that you look forward to reporting for work. As always, a positive letter should convey your enthusiasm and eagerness to cooperate.
