The Thank You Letter
The thank-you letter does make a difference. During the job search it is imperative to stand out among prospective candidates. This follow-up correspondence shows that a candidate is sufficiently motivated to undertake a little extra effort and polished enough to know how to do so. Basic professional etiquette suggests such a letter after an interview is ideally sent within 24 hours following the interview.
Traditionally, thank you letters should be typed on a computer. However, depending on your relationship with the person who interviewed you, a handwritten note on professional looking stationary or a note card might also be appropriate in certain situations.
It is best to keep this letter brief and concise. If possible, reiterate a point of interest discussed during the interview, confirm follow up procedures, and remember to express your thanks.
