Poetry and Poems

Job searching not only includes resumes and interviews, but also involves other activities to ensure that you get the job you want. Do not consider the job offer or final interview the final part of job searching. It is also important to write an interview thank you letter.

You must be wondering why you should write an after-interview thank you letter. Consider these reasons and you will realize that you HAVE to:

A well-written and meaningful thank you letter after the interview would make you stand out from the rest of the pack and make you look more professional than the rest.

Name recall with the employer. We recommend sending the letter 48 hours or less after the interview for best results.

Lose the “to whom it may concern” – it is generic and impersonal. You want to be very, very specific and address the thank you letter to somebody in particular, and get his/her name and title right. For sure nobody will be laughing when they read a letter with such careless and obvious typographical errors.

Your thank you letter should smack of professionalism, and one good way to start would be by using good paper, and not the same stock of paper used for your resume. Always have someone proofread your letter before sending it to ensure that it’s flawless.

When making multiple thank you letters, write each of them separately even if you are using a similar form. In any case, you should highlight everything discussed in the interview and emphasize your strong points, reminding your prospective employer of what they can expect.

Make sure you send a thank you letter if and when you have actually gotten the job and signed your John Hancock on the job offer. This is to show your gratitude and it is also an excellent way of starting a positive relationship with your new employer.

Be clear and concise when writing thank you letters as a response to a quick, informal interview, especially the ones done via telephone. Still, it would be necessary for you to thank the employer for giving you an opportunity to have that conversation, and to restate and reiterate any key points that may have been discussed.

A thank you letter would also be necessary if you have no choice but to turn down an offer, or if you would like to remove your name from the pool of job candidates. This leaves a good impression on your part and could open doors for future consideration if you change you mind.

In situations where you are rejected, still send a thank you thanking them for the interview which they granted you. Let them know you are still interested in re-applying if given the chance.

Sending your previous employer a thank you letter if you resign from your job or cease to be employed for another reason is a nice touch. Who knows, you might end up with a few good references. You do not want to come about as an ingrate – send a thank you letter regardless of the circumstances.
