I would like to inform you that you have been shortlist for the above
post and your interview time will be on Monday 8th May 2006 at 2.00
pm.

I look forward to hearing from you. The original is in the post."


Does this mean that I am to call her, or she will call me? What does "the original is in the post" mean? (In the mail, I assume, but what is the original?)

Thanks for your help!

Apt handle given the tone of the post

We Brits don't like official things being done by e-mail, so will often post (mail) hard copy (i.e. typed letter on official letterhead) as confirmation - this is the what the 'original is in the post' refers to.

Unless stated otherwise, I think they expect you to attend for a personal interview at 2pm on 8th May...

edit: congrats by the way - first shortlist
