Is this formal enough? “Should I expect to get a call from you sometime this week?”












0















I'm contacting HR person from a company after an interview.



She told me she will contact me right after the interview, but she sent me an e-mail she will contact me at a later time.



So I'm trying to send an e-mail to ask when to expect a call.



Is the sentence:




Should I expect to receive/get a call from you sometime this week? I would greatly appreciate if you could let me know.




formal enough or should I write something else?

          Your statement of "Should I expect to receive a call from you sometime this week?" is fine; here are a couple alternatives in case you like one of them any better:




          Can we arrange a specific time for the call?



          Can you provide me with the approximate time to expect your call?

            I would go with "Should I expect a call this week?" or "When should I expect a call?" Though if there is a degree on my wall, I haven't seen it.

              "Should I expect..." is a better formal phrase to use. I would use the same.
