In: Operations Management
You have just interviewed for a job that you really would like to have. You have heard it is a good idea to follow up an interview with a thank-you note or letter and an indication of your enthusiasm for the position. Select the strategy you will use for your follow-up, and explain why you chose it and then write your THANK YOU
The strategy that I will use for my follow-up would be:
1. Sending a thank you letter/e-mail with 24 hours of the interview to show the gratitude, remind about my skillsets, and also asked if anything was missed during the interview. This would also show my enthusiasm about joining the organization.
2. I would send a follow-up email or give a call after 7-10 days, if not get any update about the interview. It would reflect that I am curious and waiting for an update from the company.
Thank You Email After the Interview:
Dear
