What are the strategies for writing a follow-up letter?
• Address new information about the company that you have learned since the interview or last contact, such as an expansion or other major development. This shows you are still interested. • Small friendly gestures keep lines of communication open and sometimes win a second interview. Simply thanking them for the first interview is acceptable, just keep it simple. • If you forgot to mention transferable skills or felt less than great about your interview, you can mention your current skills and how they tie into the job opening they are trying to fill. • Try to not overlook any opportunity to network or promote yourself within the job search, as often it is doing the unusual or extraordinary that the competition is not doing that can earn you that job.
