终于到了自己写签经的时候啦!
先来补充几点与以前签经不同或未阐述的地方
1. DS-156的英文版也最好将中文电码填上。一大早排在使馆门口时大妈们告诉的, 还指了贴在墙上的模版。
2. 跨区签证没有明确的时间限制。我是今年一月才到深圳工作的,虽然工作证明开的是去年12月,但至今也只有五个月。看到BBS上要求的六个月,真实有些担心。但事实上VO问了到此多久,俺据实回答,没有异议。
3. 通过的签证面谈分两段进行。先是一通对话,接着被告知去旁边候者待传。然后再叫去继续面谈,最后撕下黄色卡片。俺的感觉是如果给过,不会立即撕东西,今天碰到的还有一个F1亦是如此。而要拒了或是CHECK,则会马上撕东西。俺前后各被拒,再后一个CHECK。
4. 去广州签证,一大早的话建议打车去。可能由于非典,清早打的可以讲价,又快又便宜。俺从东圃朋友住处达到使馆门口,仅用20多分钟,才40元。物超所值。
5. 一些资料不全的签友也要有信心,完全可能VO不会看。我的TOEFL,户口都没拿原件,自己的存款证明也没有,但告诉VO自己付剩下的钱。决不是建议大家资料准备不全,而是强调这些可能只是VO有兴趣或怀疑时才会看的。
再来强调几点感触:
1. 对于MBA签证,着状确实很重要,职业化套装,配以淡色口红足以。听从前人高见,今天穿了打买了就没穿过的黑色短袖长裤套装,借了朋友的无色唇彩。使馆排队时,意外的看到了老外,后聊才知是个美国人,陪商业伙伴陪签。他对我很有信心签过,理由之一是穿着正式,并指着另一个穿浅蓝职业短裙化较浓装(其实在大街上一点不过分)的年轻女子说,他一准不过,穿的象是去美国找男友。
2. 自己的实力最重要,但对问题的充分准备也可力挽狂澜。实力包括你的专业连贯性,外在气质,工作经验,社会地位等。VO对你的第一感觉很重要,问问题,看支持性材料只是象征性的。对于实力差些的签友,问题的充分准备至关重要。今天碰到的另一个F1,实力就差些,华东师范快毕业,全自费去读教育的MASTER。VO问了很多刁难的问题,甚至说如果不给签怎么办。她口语不错,准备充分,吧啦吧啦,什么接着作一名教师,继续寻求出国机会等,竟然没最后给拒。她是四号窗,大个子胡子吧。
3. 问题准备还是老套的基本问题,108,25,50已是足够。听力足够好,25问就可以了。VO男性居多,今天清一色,语速较快,熟悉问题108很有帮助。
