A message communicated electronically to modify the originally agreed upon date and/or time for a scheduled meeting or interview. Such a communication typically includes a polite request for a new arrangement, an explanation for the need to alter the schedule, and proposed alternative times, if possible. For example, a candidate might send a message stating, “Due to an unforeseen family emergency, I am writing to respectfully request a reschedule of our interview.”
The ability to effectively manage scheduled engagements, including the option to adjust them when necessary, contributes significantly to maintaining professional relationships and demonstrates respect for others’ time. Historically, schedule changes were handled via telephone or mail, presenting logistical challenges. Electronic communication streamlines this process, enabling quicker response times and reducing potential misunderstandings. This ensures efficient resource allocation for both parties involved.
