If you want to help increase your chances with the
interviewer, make the time to follow up after the interview.
Typically, only about 25 per cent of job candidates do so.
Within a day or two of the interview, follow up the
interview with a brief letter thanking the interviewer again
for their time and repeat that you would like to hear from
them as soon as possible.
Reaffirm your interest in the company and the position, and
answer any questions that were left open at the end of the
interview.
Use the same kind of paper, envelope and font as you chose
for your resume, cover letter and reference page.
This letter of thanks provides you with an excuse to contact
the interviewer again and to provide any
information that may help
the company to decide in your favor.
If an interviewer is torn between you and another
candidate, your follow up letter will likely help the company
decide in your favor.
