Thank You Letters

Testimonials

An extremely valuable experience.  I now have a CV and cover letters which I am confident will make an impact.  However, over and above that the process has enabled me to identify the valuable 'transferable skills' that I have picked up along the way which could make me attractive to a wider range of employers than I would previously have considered." Paul Durral, Kent, UK.

So easy, once you showed me how!  John Burchel, Cambs, UK

Thank you so much.  After a complete lack of interest I had an interview within a week of receiving the new CV - & now have a new job & career path.  Thanks again.  Stephen Meltip, Glos, UK>

I was just a little cynical about all this, but it worked!  I had sent numerous CVs with no response at all, now I have had several telephone calls in just a couple of days.  Terrance Stevens, Manchester, UK

So much for the “professional” advice I paid for before – that did not work but this did!  Thanks again. Vanessa Downs, Canterbury, UK.

Thanks for the super service; I am already getting ‘phone calls. Thomas Etherngton, Penn. USA.

Wow!  Even I would give myself a job!  I did not realise how good I was!  John Beale, NY, USA

What a difference, thank you so much.  Malcolm Royce, Belfast, Ir.

Thanks again, it really did make a difference.  I have already received a couple of phone calls and feel much more confident about the future.  Marsha Hartington, Newcastle, UK.

Further to our telephone conversation I really must write and thank you for all your help.  I was becoming more than a little discouraged at the total lack of response or interest – now the ‘phone has started to ring again.  Thanks, once more.  Anthony Wilde, Watford, UK.

Thank You Letters

thank you letterWhen should you send a thank-you letter after an interview?  Simple … always!

Never mind the circumstance, your interest, whatever, always send a thank-you letter, it is simply good manners.  It can also give you an advantage in a horribly competitive employment market.  Sending a thank-you letter puts your name in front of the employer (again), it confirms that you know how to behave, that you know how to deal with people, that you follow through on tasks and have a determination to succeed. 

Some years ago the thank-you letter was no more than a polite formality; today, you should view this item as another opportunity to reinforce your application.  Highlight information about yourself that is particularly relevant to the job requirements; confirm that you are capable of meeting their needs, provide examples of previous experience that will be of benefit to them, reinforce your enthusiasm for the opportunity. Correctly formulated, a thank-you letter can differentiate you from other candidates, particularly those who did not bother to write one.
