Writing a few lines of thanks after an interview is an excellent way to demonstrate your motivation. It is also an opportunity to demonstrate your professionalism through the quality of your writing and the words you use.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n

SOME TIPS :<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

\u2714\ufe0f Be specific and concise<\/p>\n\n

\u2714\ufe0f Personalize your email<\/p>\n\n

\u2714\ufe0f Express your appreciation for the time the recruiter and\/or manager gave you<\/p>\n\n

\u2714\ufe0f Demonstrate your willingness to provide further clarification on some of the items discussed, if needed<\/p>\n\n

\u2714\ufe0f Share 2-3 reasons why you are interested in the position, team, organizational values, company culture, etc.)<\/p>\n\n

WHAT NOT TO DO:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

\u274c Use overly familiar language<\/p>\n\n

\u274c Making spelling mistakes in your text<\/p>\n\n

\u274c Demonstrate your questioning (this is not the time)<\/p>\n\n

\u274c Share the things you didn’t like about the meeting (talk to your Kenova Recruitment Consultant instead)<\/p>\n\n

\u274c Send a text message instead of an email (unless it is to your Kenova Advisor or the employer is texting you directly. In the latter case, be sure to keep it professional)<\/p>\n\n

In conclusion, following up after an interview is still a good practice when done well. Be aware that if this email is poorly designed, it can hurt your application.<\/p>\n\n

To avoid any fatal errors, we strongly recommend that you go through your Kenova recruiting expert<\/strong> who will be able to pass on your comments to the potential employer in an appropriate manner. He\/She will know how to make you shine at your true value!<\/p>\n\n

To alleviate this concern, please know that the Kenova team welcomes all your comments with open arms, we appreciate knowing you better and this allows us to advise you better.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
