Dear Ira,

I believe we are trying to coordinate an interview with you at Savantagee for Tuesday for the technical writing position with Savantagee. You’ll probably get a call today about this. The nex e-mail I send will have the Savantagee employment application form attached. For some reason there are certain e-mail accounts to which I’ve had trouble sending attachments and AOL is one of them. You may already be aware of this. Before opening the next e-mail message from me, you may want to turn off your security until after you have successfully downloaded the form, then turn it back on. If you still do not get the attachment, you may want to see if it’s residing in your junk e-mail area. Please complete, sign and include a cover sheet attention: E.Aryers . Please call first since this is a shared machine.

Please contact me directly should you need additional assistance.
