  • Yes, I receive and write confirmation emails quite often for work meetings and job interviews. They are really helpful for making sure everyone has the right date, time, and location.

Do you ever receive or write emails like this one to confirm an appointment?

Yes, it happens a lot at work when arranging meetings or confirming appointments. I often receive emails like this, and sometimes I write them myself to confirm meeting details such as the date, time, and location.

Actually, I've only received an email like this once in my life. It was an invitation to participate in a job exam, but unfortunately, I couldn't attend because I was abroad.
