The Power Of A Thank You Letter
Default Author • Mar 02, 2017

If you used a recruiter to get the interview, you quickly jump on the phone to convey your feedback which they will pass along to the client.

But there is another way…

A thank you letter.

Here are my tips for sending a thank you note:


  • Get their business card after the interview if you don't already have their contact details.
  • Send the email within 24 hours of the interview.
  • Thank them for their time, be authentic and keep the tone positive.
  • Briefly recap your skills, experience and why you think you are a great fit for the role.
  • If they expressed any concerns in the interview, this is a great time to reinforce your suitability for the role.
  • Most importantly, reinforce your interest in the position and their business. Highlight something positive you found out about the business during the interview.
  • Use spell check and make sure you proofread thoroughly.
