How To Say Thank You After A Job Interview by phoenix45(m): 5:16pm On Aug 27, 2020
After you have finished your job interview, you still have an opportunity to make a good impression on your prospective employer. This can be done by a simple act of kindness in the form of a thank you letter.
Therefore, let us look at how to write a thank you letter to a potential employer after an interview. There are three types of thank you letters you can send the employer who interviewed you.
You can send them a typed letter by envelope, a store bought thank you card, or an email. The better way would be to send a typed letter by envelope or an email.
Your format for the typed letter or email will be very similar. Therefore, I am going to focus on how to write the typed letter as you can do the same for the email. Also, I am focusing on the typed letter because it is the best overall way to go when saying, “Thank you.” At the top of your letter, tabbed to the far right, include your name, address, city, state, zip code, phone number, and email address.
Give your name its own line and under it on a separate line place your address. Then on the next line type out your city, state, and zip code. Afterward, on the next line place your e mail address and on the last line type your phone number. Start the memo out by saying, “Dear,” then add the person’s name who interviewed you.
As you drop down to begin the first paragraph, think about why you are excited about being considered for the job. Then include your thoughts of hope and gratitude in the same paragraph. Allow the second paragraph to state what skills you look forward to putting to work for the company.
Explain how and why you believe your skills are relevant, and maybe mention what you are doing to improve those skills. If you need share something with the interviewer that
you forgot to say at your screening, place it in the third paragraph. However, keep it short as you do not want to seem pushy. In your closing paragraph, re-express your appreciation for being brought in for consideration for the position. Also, include an encouraging message for the person who interviewed you to keep working hard and enjoy their day.
Finally, make sure you send your thank you letter out 24 hours after the interview. This way you allow them some time to call you back. However, you are sending it out early enough for them to not forget you. Then, close the letter out by adding a space, typing “sincerely,” then adding two spaces and typing your name.
Print the letter out and sign your name in black or blue ink between the word sincerely and your typed-out name. Try to keep your letter between three to four paragraphs. Also, make sure you add a space between each paragraph.
Use these tips to send out a thank you letter that says thank you while showing your professionalism. Who knows; it may be your thank you letter that sets you above your competition
