Detailed explanation-1: -Investing the time to send a thank you increases your chances of standing out from other applicants. One study found that only one out of four candidates sent thank you messages after their interviews, yet 80% of HR managers said those messages were helpful when reviewing candidates.
Detailed explanation-2: -It’s best to send a thank-you email within 24 hours of your interview. Doing so demonstrates your interest in the job. It also keeps you top of mind with those you met with as they consider other candidates.
Detailed explanation-3: -A thank-you note gives you an opportunity to reiterate points you made during your interview. Have you ever left an interview wishing you’d more strongly emphasized a certain skill or experience the employer seemed to be looking for? A thank-you letter after an interview gives you the chance to do just that.
Detailed explanation-4: -It’s a good idea to follow-up with a quick thank you after your in-person interview-even if the interview didn’t go do well, even if you’ve decided you don’t want the job after all. Not following up could jeopardize your chances of getting the job and convey a lack of professionalism-important if you do want the job.
