Post Phone Interview Thank You Letter
Please notice we didn’t say Post-Interview Email or Text! You have not met this hiring authority face-to-
face at this point, so you need to make certain that you demonstrate courtesy, polish, and thoughtfulness,
and you also want to set yourself apart from other candidates in the interviewing process. So after a
phone interview, you draft and send a brief (1/2 page to 1 page max) Thank You Note/Letter, on personal
stationary, attached to an email. Never send this, or any, letter to a prospective employer until you have
received post-interview feedback and forward instructions from your “Headhunter”.
