The Importance of a Thank You Note
Let me tell you a story.
A candidate really wants a job. She knows she’s competing with another equally qualified candidate.
After her interview, she sends a handwritten, thoughtfully worded note, touching on a few specific topics that were broached during the conversation.
The other candidate does not.
Guess who gets the job?
This is not just one story, but a paradigm we’ve seen play out many times in our line of work.
All things equal, it’s the candidate who sends the thoughtful follow-up note who scores.
