Pois bem, como eu me saí bem na entrevista do Consulado para o Visto??
Pesquisei bastante em blogs, vídeos e nos grupos do face sobre o dia V. Anotei TODAS as perguntas que eu vi, tipo, as meninas boazinhas que publicaram como foi sua entrevista colocando as perguntas que fizeram a elas...eu copiei no word e respondi!
Isso aí, depois de ter pegado as perguntas (que na maioria das entrevistas são as mesmas) e responder, eu imprimi e fiquei uma semana antes da entrevista treinando em voz alta. Sim, assim fui me acostumando às perguntas e decorando as respostas...quando chegou na hora da entrevista, todas as perguntas que o Cônsul me fez eu tinha anotado e tinha a resposta na ponta da língua, por isso não gagueijei e respondi rápido! :)
Vou colocar aqui - no finalzinho do post - as perguntas e resposta que eu tenho.
Outra coisa que algumas meninas perguntam é com que roupa deve ir...bom, não é que seja o certo mas eu fui assim:
No CASV - sapatilha, calça jeans, e blusa de cor escura (vi em algum blog não lembro qual que não é bom ir de branco, o motivo não sei...)
No Consulado - sapatilha, calça jeans e blusa social cor mais clara (suave), cabelo solto, maquiagem suave, sorriso de simpática no rosto.
Não mencionei no outro post, mas eu levei um monte de papelada que no final não me pediram nada, nunca relatos deles pedindo alguma documento extra as au pair, mas, é melhor levar...
Apesar de "trabalhar", eu não levei minha carteira de trabalho para o consulado e não tinha contra-cheque ainda, assim como todas levei vários papés como extrato de banco, comprovantes que meu pai trabalha e ganha $, letter da família, cópia do diploma da facul, e tantos outros papéis...
Eu fiquei com medo de ter o visto negado por falta de provas de vínculo com Brasil caso me pedissem, mas no final não pediram nada e deu tudo certo.
A minha agência pediu para que assim que eu saísse do Consulado ligar e avisar primeiro a eles sobre o resultado da entrevista e não falar primeiro para a família...
Acho que isso..segue as perguntas&resposta para quem quiser treinar:
