How long should I wait after an interview to start sending out more résumés?
First, don’t wait. Until you have accepted a job offer, you should keep pursuing opportunities. Don’t stop until you’ve achieved your goal. Second, don’t be passive and just wait for the potential employer to contact you. Unless they have given you other instructions, call every company that interviews you 5-10 days after the interview to follow up. • Do I have to send a thank you note after an interview? Yes, because it sends several messages to potential employers. First, it demonstrates that you’re interested in the job. Second, it shows that you have good social skills (especially if you’re in sales). Finally, it helps the hiring manager remember your name. Advertising is repeated so the name of the product sinks in. When you send a thank you note, you are helping the person making the hiring decision think about you. Send a thank you note to everyone who interviews you. Keep them concise, personal, and upbeat.
