- Why should I send a thank you
letter?
-
- Statistics show that only 33% of interviewees send thank-you
notes after an interview.
-
- Use this as an opportunity to mention anything you may have
forgotten to in the interview, thank the interviewer one more time,
and express your level of interest in the position.
-
- Sending a thank you note can mean the difference between
receiving a job offer and not.
-
- See the Thank You Letters guide for
tips on writing thank-you letters and follow up
correspondence.
- How can I evaluate my
performance

- Interviewing, just like anything else, is a learning

improvement and work on them before your next interview. You
might consider asking yourself the following questions to assess
your performance.

- Did I give positive signals about my interest in the
position?

- Did my body language show my interest, enthusiasm and
eagerness?

the interviewer to hear?
-
- Did I look at the interviewer both when speaking and when
spoken to?
-
- Did I fidget or appear nervous?
-
- Did I show that I was listening by answering the questions that
were asked and did I adequately answer the questions answered?
-
- Did I successfully demonstrate my qualifications?
-
