Thank You Notes

Can sending a thank you note after a job interview help you get a second interview or a job offer? According to an Accountemps Survey saying thank you does make a difference. The survey reports that 88% percent of executives said they consider a thank you note influential when evaluating candidates. 52% of executives said they preferred a hand-written thank you note, while 44% recommended email. Another 3% would like to receive both an email and a written thank you note.

It's important to mention that about half of applicants don't take the time to send a thank you note after an interview. So, if you're one of the applicants that does take time to say thank you (and to remind the the interviewer why you're a strong candidate for the job) to your interviewer it will be well worth the effort.

If you're not sure what to write, review a sample thank you letter or two to get some ideas and suggestions. And, if you have a thank you letter you're proud of and you'd like to share it with our site visitors, here's how to submit your letter for consideration.
