[原创]2004年6月14上海拒签经历

[日期:2005-01-23] 来源:ChaseDream论坛 作者:飞雪 [字体: ]

从昨天晚上到现在,大家的帖子让我的眼泪掉了一遍又一遍,现在我不会因为自己没有拿到签证而伤心,不会因为最终去不了UM而难过,因为我觉得我得到了比MBA学位更宝贵的东西,大家的爱和支持!

本来不打算写签经的,因为没有什么代表性,为了让大家明白我的签证过程,我还是决定把整个过程写一下。

预约的是上午10点半,九点过一些到了梅隆镇,发现没什么人排队,很快就领到一个小牌牌被放上了8楼,在等过安检的地方等了大约15分钟,被放进签证大厅,才发现早已人满为患。由于用了条形码,直接就交表到空无一人的2号窗口,领了号开始站在那里等候,心情有些紧张。在等候签证的11号窗口前排了大约15-20个人,一看就知道都是F1了。其间又有一些人很幸运的签过,签探亲签证的也过了一些,但不多。大约11点的时候被叫去取了指纹,取指纹的金发MM十分nice,上来给了我一个big smile,让我顿觉心情舒畅很多,从这之后就没觉得紧张了。5号窗口负责取指纹的签证官数次喊着“乡亲们,请大家安静,请听到叫到号码的人到5号窗口排队”觉得那个签证官十分可爱,忍俊不禁。百无聊赖的站在那里看一些白发苍苍的大爷大妈们被拒掉,心里为他们难过着。快十二点的时候看到褐发MM的窗口闪着我的号码,于是很自信的走上前去,前面一个被拒的大妈不肯离开,我只好在一旁等了一、两分钟。

V hi, how are you?

me:刚想回答,结果没来得及下一个问题就上来了

VO:Do you have a resume?

Me: yes, 开始找简历递给她

V good,然后把简历放在一边.

V so you are going to UM, why UM?

Me: first, because it has the strongest combination in General Management and Supply Chain Management, which fits my career goal. I've been in logistics field for 6 years...记得不是很清楚了,反正是说需要这样的教育。

Second, I need to gain international perspective, because SCM is a huge network connect the world together, so for my career development I must understand international operation.

(这时她要继续问下一个问题了,但是我还是把第三点说了一句话)

Third, UM has very strong alumni network in China.

然后微笑着等她的下一个问题

V So you began your work in March

Me: Yes, I moved to Shanghai last November.

V so you didn't work for 4 months.

Me: Yes, but I did some freelance work as translation in between to make some money, besides, there was the Chinese New Year in between.

V yes.

V Do you have Shanghai Residence (此时她指得不是户口)

Me: Yes,我误会了,以为她问的是户口,当然回答yes.

V Do you have any proof

Me: Yes, I have the residence card with me。赶紧找出户口卡给她

不知道她是不是能看懂中文的东西,我说了一句sorry that i don't have the translation for the residence card, 她说it's ok. 然后她拿着看了半天,说了句话让我知道她是没看明白

V this is only your application paper. 你有居住证或者暂住证吗(终于涉及到中国东西的内容不得不上中文了).

Me: No, this is my residence card, i have permanant Shanghai residence,i don't need 居住证

V I have done so many interviews and read so many materials, how can you don't have 居住证, if you have already lived in shanghai for such a long time.

Me: (强烈郁闷中),这是我的户口,我有上海户口,不需要居住证

V 给我看你的户口本

Me: 我的户口放在人才市场,是集体户口,只有户口卡,没有户口本。

V 终于恍然大悟,oh, so you have Shanghai 户口。

Me:(虽然被她搞得有点生气,还是面带笑容的回答)yes, and as you can see that my passport is also issued in Shanghai.

VO:不知道是不是知道自己错了觉得很没面子还是什么原因,开始对我表现出不耐烦,一边在往电脑里敲东西,一边不耐烦的对我说了一串Ok.

V what do your parents do?

Me: 用非常自豪的语气说My father is the chief Engineer in his company, and his annual salary is XXX,XXX,He is my model, he is a graduate and he can make even much more money after his retirement.

V So, is money the most important thing for you?

Me: No, of course not. Career is more important for me, I need to be regonized in the company i am working at to show my strong ability.还说了一句,想不起来怎么说的了,反正是扯到为什么要学MBA的。

V What's your plan after graduation.

Me: I will come back to Shanghai and secure a manager position in supply Chain management in a multinational company or any other company can give me better chance for my development. 然后开始跟她说了SCM在中国的大好前景(在这里要感谢JW2004提供的信息)。还说了为什么一定会回国就是从career和life的角度来讲的。

V (因为我回答期间提到过国内的social network,于是她问)you can also know some friends and build your nextwork in US, coz you will stay there for two years, why not stay there?

Me:No, I don't think so. I once worked in Beijing, and now working in Shanghai, I have very strong social network in China. I don't think I will have the same strong one in US as the one I have in China within two years(这倒也成为后来一个她抓我把柄的地方了). Besides, after I come back, my parents can also give me strong support in my career development.

然后停顿了大概30秒后,估计她是在考虑,然后还是去拿那张纸,开始对我说sorry,i can't give you the visa this time,我打算反驳,不给机会。迅速盖下章,不管我说什么,对我说my decision is final, but I can tell you the reasons, 然后说出了让我震惊的理由:

1)you applied visa 4 times with 4 different schools with different reasons.当时差点气背过气去,不知道她从哪得到的这种不可理喻的信息,我两年只被两个美国学校录取,不知道另外两所学校是从哪里冒出来的,更不用说拿它们去申请签证了。然后我努力要解释,她不给机会,我刚一开头她就打断我,继续说着她的理由。

2)As you only moved to Shanghai last November and began work in March, so you don't have strong social network in such a short time as you said(就因为我说我在美国两年不可能有在中国这么多年建立起来的网络强,我真是没想到啊), so you are not stable.

我要反驳她,刚说了一句I have enough proof that I have strong network in Shanghai.打断我,我继续想说,她继续打断我,然后不理我,最后离开座位,反正就是不给我机会说话。

说句实话,整个过程除了户口问题的争论让人觉得不愉快之外,其他时候我感觉都还不错,而且也看见我回答问题的时候她在点头,由于自己不紧张,觉得发挥还不错。只是这个签证官拒绝看任何资料,拿出来出示给她,她只是摇头不要。真的打死也想不到最后被拒的原因是这样的,说句不好听的真是“死不瞑目”啊。如果说第二条还稍微有那么一点道理,第一条简直就是冤假错案。

无论如何,在这里我要感谢无数支持着我的朋友们,太多的人需要感谢,名单我就不列了。谢谢UM的同志们在签证前一天举行聚会鼓励我,为我出谋划策!感谢如此多的朋友用各种方式来安慰我。也许昨天我的帖子显得消极了一些,因为如此被拒心情真的好不起来。签我肯定还会去签的,我永远记得piggycandy的一句话“倒在终点前的人是可耻的”,有一线希望我都会去争取。
