I Really Want the Job! How Should I Follow Up After the Interview - Sterling Career Concepts

I Really Want the Job! How Should I Follow Up After the Interview I Really Want the Job! How Should I Follow Up After the Interview? You interviewed for a position, and you’re really interested in the job. Maybe you interviewed really well and are now hoping to get called back for another round, or maybe you didn’t interview as well as you’d hoped, but you’re confident you’re a strong fit and want one last chance to convince them of your candidacy. There are ways to follow up and continue making a positive impression on the potential employer. As appropriate, consider one of the following 3 ways to follow up in writing: 1. Draft either a 90-day or a 30/60/90-day plan on what you would implement if you were offered and accepted the position. 2. Offer a suggestion or strategy for how you would resolve a challenge that was discussed during the interview. 3. Recommend a resource or contact name which ties in to something discussed during the interview. Devising a 90-day or 30/60/90-day plan will take some time so go ahead and send your thank you letter out as usual within 24 hours and then follow up within a few days (no more than a week) with your plan. The benefit to this is that will serve as an additional point of contact. Either of the second 2 options can be done within the thank you/follow-up letter or in a separate e-mail. Just be sure not to delay sending the thank you letter on account of one of these strategies. The follow-up can always stand on its own.
