Thank You Notes That Get You Note-ist

Your interviewer may have spoken with 10, 20 or even more candidates for the position. A brief, personalized thank you note will help keep you in the forefront of the recruiter or manager’s mind.

Keep it brief—three sentences or so. As you craft your message be sure to touch on these three points.

Thank them for their time.

Succinctly express the top reason you are right for this job, and personalize with a nod to something you have learned about the interviewer (did they mention a recent vacation, a pet, a hobby?).

Sign off with a reiteration of your sincere appreciation and anticipation of further communication.
