Thank you note reminders:

• Send the note within 24 hours of the interview if you send it via the mail service and 48 hours of the interview if you send it digitally.

• Make the note personal, but professional.
• Keep the tone positive and confident.
• Keep the note brief; use your words economically.
• Refer to specific things that the interviewer said during the interview.
• Reaffirm how you can add value to the company.
• Be certain that there are no grammatical or spelling errors in the note.
• Follow up the thank you letter with a phone call a week later, if you have not heard from the employer.
