关于排队,递材料,录指纹的过程就不多说了,前面已经有很多人提到,而且已经很全面了。我约的是早上8点,感觉等待时间不是很长,到出来的时候是9点,可能约得越早等待时间越短吧
排队的时候窗口并没有全开,只有4个窗口办公。感觉12号窗口的亚裔MM签得很快,而且全部通过,心中默默祈祷被分到她的窗口;金发GG签得很慢,其他窗口都签走2-3队了,他连一队都没签完,而且资料看得很仔细,难道是周末过得不愉快?其他两个窗口没什么概念,也没注意里面是谁在签。
就在不知不觉之间被带到了*号窗口前(汗,居然忘记几号了),定睛一瞧,皮肤棕黑,身材魁梧,40-50岁上下,面无表情,难道就是传说中的杀手黑MM?我前面只有一对老人,好象是去参加孙子的高中毕业典礼(的确有点说不过去,高中毕业典礼好象在老美心中没那么重要吧?)黑MM仔细查看了他们的资料以后,用带有口音但还算流利的中文说:对不起,我不能发给你们签证!在那刹那,看着老人惊讶又遗憾的表情,心中顿时生出一阵酸楚... 来不及过多感慨,定了定神走上前去,结果黑MM做了个stop的手势,说:我还没有输入完,你等等!又无奈的退了回来,有种一鼓作气,再而衰的感觉...等了10几秒钟,她示意我可以过去了。
ME: Nice to meet you! (smile)
VO: Hi (面无表情,一个Hi就打发了?气愤中~)
ME: Hi (你High我也High,阿Q精神)
VO: ********MBA******Tulane******(完全没听清,没办法,硬着头皮回答吧)
ME: I wanna go to Tulane University to persue my MBA degree. Tulane is a very good school and to be ranked top 50....(被生硬打断)
VO: Why M-B-A???(很不耐烦的口气,谁招你了啊!)
ME: Because I will establish my own e-commerce company in the future! MBA can provide ...(又一次被打断)
VO: Which kind of e-commerce company?
ME: B2C. It's a kind of business in e-commerce field. You can buy products...(再一次被打断,无语)
VO: What is B2C?
ME: B2C means Business to customer.(再不想过多解释,感觉说多了也被打断,别自讨没趣了)
VO: Which B2C company is most popular in China? (这时突然感觉她对这个行业可能非常了解,毕竟电子商务是从老美那边发源的,她在中国估计也经常上网购物)
ME: Dangdang and Joyo. Joyo is also Amazon China.
VO: How can you compete with them? (tough question)
ME: They focus on books and CDs...you know...My company will focus on digital products. So we don't compete with them directly but provide more specific products.
VO 点头+微笑 看来果然对这个行业比较了解
到这时我以为差不多该完了,结果事与愿违,耳边回响起一句广告词:我才刚上路呢...
VO: So...your mother will be your sponser. What's your mother's job?
ME: My mother is taking in charge of an accounting department of *** company.
VO: What's your father's job?
ME: My father has retired.
VO: retired from which job? (节奏很快)
ME: from HR department of *** company
VO: So your mother will pay your tuition. (怎么又回来了,是不是问得连她自己都晕了)
ME: I do earn some money but it's all in the stock market.
VO: Which company do you invest your money?
ME: **** company, you know?
VO (点头+撕条)
拿到绿条的刹那感觉已经麻木了,本来去之前想好,如果顺利拿到条子,肯定得说句:have a nice week之类的,结果傻傻的就说了句:thank you...
总结:带去的材料和证明一样都没看,一直在高速对答,能够感觉到黑MM在我回答问题的流利程度上找空子,只要稍微磕巴或支吾就一定会追问。所以回答问题一定要实事求是,只要坦荡的回答她所有的问题,就会赢得她的信任。感觉整个签证过程比较感性,没有任何实际材料做支撑,全凭口述,最后顺利通过可能也是因为在语言上赢得了她的信任。
最后祝愿所有的申请者都能顺利拿到visa,实现理想!
