Writing a thank you letter

Writing a “Thank You” Letter
(Written by Neha Bawa – BestLogic Staffing)

Writing a thank you letter after a job interview is absolutely necessary. Really, we can’t over emphasize the necessity of sending a thank you letter to your interviewer within an appropriate amount of time, which usually should not exceed 24 hours.
Not only is a thank you letter courteous and respectful, it also reinforces your intention for seeking that particular position.

The format for writing a thank you letter is the same as for writing a cover letter. And just like the cover letters, thank you letters need to be customized for their recipients as well.
Begin your letter with thanking the person who interviewed you.

In the second paragraph, reiterate the particulars of the job that make you a good candidate for it, and once again, but briefly, remind your interviewer of your skills and achievements and state any achievements of yours that you may have neglected or forgotten to mention at the interview. Once again, keep your letter extremely brief.

If you are short on time and need to respond immediately, then sending an email to thank your interviewer is acceptable. Keep in mind that if a panel has interviewed you, then a letter needs to be sent to each individual at the panel.
