Employers were that impressed with the fact that they had sent thank you notes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think about the last time you received any kind of hand-written note in the mail. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Didn\u2019t it make you feel good \u2013 that someone took the time and consideration to sit down, pen some thoughts, and pop it in the mail?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-black-color has-text-color\">7 ways thank you notes can help you land the job<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>1. They allow you to thank interviewers&nbsp;once again for their time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. They keep you top-of-mind as a good-fit candidate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. They allow you to mention highlights of the interview conversation and reiterate your interest in the position and the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. They provide an opportunity to once more reinforce your <a href=\"https:\/\/executivecareerbrand.com\/the-new-10-step-executive-personal-branding-worksheet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">personal brand<\/a> and value proposition for that company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5. They provide an opportunity to bring up information you poorly addressed or forgot in the interview. You can set things right if you botched the interview. [More about this below.]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>6. They provide an opportunity to ask about the next step in the interview process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>7. They can be the make-or-break deciding factor in you landing at that company sometime in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What if you don&#8217;t have a physical address?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Email thank you\u2019s are also okay, especially if you don&#8217;t have a physical address, and because of the timing factor. It&#8217;s best to send a thank you as quickly as you can after the interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And there&#8217;s nothing wrong with doing both: send a quick email followed up by a hand-written thank you, if you can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fastcompany.com\/91035495\/do-i-really-need-to-send-a-thank-you-note-after-an-interview\">Kathleen Davis<\/a>, host of The New Way We Work podcast, suggests sending a brief email \u2014 a few sentences will do \u2014 within 24 hours of the interview, with these 3 simple components: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1.  It\u2019s pretty obvious, but start with \u201cThank you.\u201d <\/strong>Thank the interviewer(s) for their time and for telling you about the role and company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2.  Reiterate your interest, but don\u2019t rehash your qualifications.<\/strong> A thank-you note isn\u2019t a <a href=\"https:\/\/executivecareerbrand.com\/how-to-write-the-best-cover-letter-for-executive-job-search\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"222\">cover letter<\/a> or r\u00e9sum\u00e9. Instead, mention something that the <a href=\"https:\/\/executivecareerbrand.com\/7-ways-to-get-noticed-by-recruiters-and-hiring-managers\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"223\">hiring manager<\/a> talked about in the interview that sounded exciting or interesting about the role and then elaborate briefly on why you\u2019d love the chance to work on it, or share an idea you have that you didn\u2019t mention in the interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3.  Add something personal.<\/strong> Hopefully you had a moment of personal connection during your interview. Referencing something you talked about can go a long way in reminding the interviewer(s) that you are someone they\u2019d like to work with every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to phrase your thank you&#8217;s<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>More specifically, job search expert <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebalancemoney.com\/thank-you-phrases-and-wording-2064014\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Alison Doyle<\/a> offered several ways to say &#8220;thank you&#8221; to your interviewers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>I appreciate having the opportunity to speak with you today about the [job title] position at [company name].<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I appreciate the time you and the [company name] team spent interviewing me.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I appreciate your time and consideration in interviewing me for this position.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I enjoyed speaking with you about the opportunity to work with your company.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I greatly appreciate the time you took to interview me.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I sincerely appreciate the time you took to interview me.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I sincerely enjoyed meeting with you to discuss the [job title] opening.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I would like to thank you and your staff for the opportunity to meet with you.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Many thanks for the opportunity to meet with you.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Thank you for speaking with me about the [job title] position at [company name].<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Thank you for the courtesy you extended to me during my interview.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Take it beyond a &#8220;thank you&#8221;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Recruitment firm <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/feed\/update\/urn:li:activity:6922881686602960896\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">FPC National<\/a> advises that your letter needs to go beyond saying &#8220;thank you&#8221;. It needs to make a pitch: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the <a data-wpil-monitor-id=\"224\" href=\"https:\/\/executivecareerbrand.com\/29-biggest-linkedin-mistakes\/\">biggest mistakes job seekers<\/a> make with their follow-up letters is neglecting to use this correspondence as an opportunity to cement their talking points. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you only use this letter to thank your interviewer for their time, then you are leaving a lot unsaid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are three important goals you can achieve in your letter:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1.  Reinforce your messaging:<\/strong> Either in paragraph or bullet form, reiterate your most relevant qualifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2.  Overcome objections:<\/strong> Did you run into a stumbling block on the interview? Did they express concerns about your candidacy? Here is a chance for you to mitigate any negative, conflicting, or irrelevant aspects of your background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. <\/strong> <strong>Fill in the gaps:<\/strong> Here is your opportunity to provide information that address requirements that you uncovered during the interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to do if you botched the interview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t give up on the job (or the company), if you screwed up the interview. You may be able to turn things around with a thoughtfully-written thank you letter, addressing the negative issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s a case in point, noted in the Career Directors International Tip Sheet, &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/careerdirectors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Tip_AfterInterview.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Maintain Momentum After the Job Interview<\/a>&#8220;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>An engineer <a href=\"https:\/\/executivecareerbrand.com\/power-pose-to-ace-executive-job-interviews\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"873\">interviews for a job<\/a> he really wants.

He wasn\u2019t going to send a thank letter, but&nbsp;his career consultant convinced him he had to. Together, they talked about what went wrong&nbsp;during the interview. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, they created a thank you letter that readdressed the botched&nbsp;questions, especially since he was an expert on that topic. The letter also included a quote&nbsp;directly from a letter of reference from a former boss. They also included that letter and an article&nbsp;the engineer had written on the topic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He ultimately got the job! On his first day, his boss told him&nbsp;that when he had left after the first interview, he was out of the running. They assumed he must&nbsp;have lied on his resume.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Address where you fell short in the interview and sell the value you offer when you craft your &#8220;second chance&#8221; thank you letter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may get nowhere with this letter, but why not try? You have everything to gain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tips to make the best impression with your thank you notes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Get the full name, correct spelling, and title of each interviewer. Collecting everyone\u2019s business cards is a great way to do this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take a little time right after the interview to jot down the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Critical questions they asked.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Your answers that had a positive impact, captured their attention, and\/or represented important skills to meet the company\u2019s current challenges.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The concerns about you they voiced.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Items you forgot to mention in the interview.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>Also:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Remember to personalize the content in each note.
