Writing Thank You Letters
I have heard a number of opinions regarding writing a thank you letter, or thank you email after an employment interview, many applicants don’t do it but many people believe it is a must and will set you apart from others interviewing for the same job. I also believe that some employers think less of those interviewees who fail to follow-up promptly;
Here are some guidelines;
Follow an interview, promptly within a couple of days of the interview. Write and letter and email to all who you interviewed with, express your appreciation for the interview. Thank them for the interview. Your response tells them:
It shows your appreciation for the employers interest in you.
Tells them again of your interest in the position and the organization
Reviews your qualifications for the position they described to you and if some of you did not get a chance to share your key strengths you can take this opportunity to mention them.
Follow up with any information the employer may have asked you to proved after the interview.
Thank you letters seem like a small part of the interview process but it could be the one thing that pushes you over the top in the interview process.
