an important, yet often overlooked,
part of the job search process.
• It allows you to thank the interviewer
for his or her time
• Article will address the most
appropriate way to follow-up after a
job interview

3. At the End of the Interview
1. Ask for a timeline.
This is extremely useful, as it
will give you some indication of
how long you are expected to
wait for a decision and of when
it will be appropriate to follow
up with the correct person.

4. At the End of the Interview
2. Ask for your
interviewer's business
card.
This will give you the person’s
correct contact information,
including name, title, mailing
address and email address,
which will save you time when
you are sending your thank you
note and letter.

5. Directly After the Interview
3. Send a thank you
note by email.
This shows the interviewer that
you are both enthusiastic and
organized and ensures that
they will not forget you as a
candidate.

4. Make notes about
the interview while it is
still fresh in your mind.
This will help you to tailor your
responses should you be called
to a second interview, or may
give you some indication of
where you went wrong if you
are not.

7. Several Days After the Interview
5. After the indicated
time period has passed,
follow up with a single
email or phone call
If the time period they
specified it would take for them
to reach a decision has passed -
whether it has been two days or
two weeks - it is now appropriate
for you to follow up about the
decision via email or phone call

6. Respond promptly if you
are contacted about a
second interview or a job
offer.

response is unprofessional and
makes it seem like you are not
enthusiastic about the job

9. Several Days After the Interview
7. Even if you didn't get
the job, thank the
interviewer for their time
Don't be angry or overly-
disappointed - accept the fact
that there were probably many
other qualified candidates and
view it as a valuable learning
experience.

10. What to Avoid
8. Don't harass the
company
Being over-eager and
bombarding the company with
follow-up emails and phone calls
is not a good idea and can
actually harm your chances of
getting the position.

11. What to Avoid
9. Don't go to the
company in person,
unless invited
Showing up at the company
uninvited is a definite no-no. It
puts pressure on the hiring
manager or interviewer to speak
with you, even though the timing
may be very inconvenient for
them.

12. What to Avoid
10.Don't avoid the
follow-up letter or
phone call
Some people erroneously think
they should just wait for a
decision and not bother the
interviewer. This is not the
correct tactic.
