Common Mistakes

  • Sí, es tener una entrevista con el equipo.

    ‘Es’ is the verb ‘ser’ and cannot be used to express a future action here.

  • Sí, voy a tener una entrevista con el equipo.

    Using ‘voy a’ changes the subject to first person; the original sentence addresses the listener.

  • Sí, vas a tener una entrevista con equipo.

    The article ‘el’ before ‘equipo’ is required; omitting it sounds ungrammatical.

Alternatives

  • Sí, tendrás una entrevista con el equipo.

    Yes, you will have an interview with the team.

  • Claro, tendrás una entrevista con el equipo.

    Sure, you will have an interview with the team.

  • Por supuesto, tendrás una entrevista con el equipo.

    Of course, you will have an interview with the team.

Cultural Tip

In many Spanish‑speaking workplaces, the periphrastic future (ir + a + infinitive) is preferred for near‑future plans because it sounds less formal than the simple future (tendrás). However, both are correct; choose the periphrastic form when you want a conversational tone. Remember to match the formality of the rest of the conversation – you might use “tendrá” if speaking to a senior manager.
