You are looking for a job and hence &#8211; you decide to call the recruiter to enquire about the vacancy. Making calls in general &#8211; for enquiring about anything in life is a must have skill. The way you speak and phrase your questions speaks a lot about you as a person. It gives out your confidence level and fluency in English. However, when you start calling up for a job vacancy, it is very important to keep a note of your tone and language. Here is where Modals come into the picture.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Modals are nothing but helping verbs. They add an expression of \u201casking for permission\u201d before the action word. For example &#8211; May I come in? Here &#8211; \u201cMay\u201d is the modal verb. May denotes permission and this is exactly how modals are used. On that note, let\u2019s look at some examples which will help you phrase your questions related to job vacancy enquiries better.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Could you please brief me about the position?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Could I please understand the job requirement and eligibility?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">May I borrow your pen to sign these papers?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">May I know the due date for the application process?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">May I know when the selection process begins?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Key Takeaways<\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Modals are helping verbs.
