(BF-075) 위탁된 입사 지원자 면접 거절 (Decline to Interview Referred Job Applicant)

[Write 2 Speak]

Dear

Having been away from the office for a few days, I didn't
read your letter of May 19th until today.

While I am sure the young man you wrote to me about wouldn't
warrant the recommendation you gave unless he is truly exceptional,
I believe it would be unfair to him to set up an interview at this time.
* warrant = 정당(타당)하게 만들다/ exceptional = 특출한

We have just had to lay off twenty four employees and there is
no way that I could justify hiring someone new under those
circumstances. We anticipate that business should improve over
the next six months, but for now, the timing is off.
* lay sb off = ~를 해고(정리 해고)하다/ justify = 정당화(해명)하다
* timing = 시기선택, 시기/ off = 정확하지 않은 

I am sorry to have to disappoint you. You know, under the right
circumstances, we are always looking for bright young people
with potential.
* potential = 잠재력

Thank you for thinking of us.
