This is one of the top questions I get on a weekly basis. A thank you note is a simple but powerful way to show your appreciation and professionalism. It can also help you stand out from other candidates, reiterating your skillset and why you want to work for the company.
A thank you note can demonstrate your enthusiasm about the opportunity. You can address questions that you may have felt you didn’t shed enough light on. It can also give you a chance to restate your main qualifications. This is a great way for those who may be switching industries to address any concerns and restate their excitement about the company and position.
Thank you notes should be around 250 – 300 words. Be sure to thank the interviewer(s) for their time and showcase your appreciation.
Thank you goes a long way.
If you have any concerns or additional questions, you could address them here; however, thank you notes are not a place for a ton of questions. A thank you is designed to provide more detail to anything you felt needed additional information, thanking the team, and showcasing your excitement.
You should reaffirm your qualifications and skills, highlighting achievements to help you stand out as a candidate. Remember, this isn’t a full-page documentary – just a short quick note to help the hiring manager remember you.
