After an interview, it is advisable to send a thank-you letter to the recruiter, both as a professional courtesy and as a method of establishing communication with the company. The letter should be mailed within one or two days of your interview. The letter need only be two or three paragraphs in length. Acknowledge it and, if interested, state what dates would be convenient for you, avoiding weekends and holidays. Do not delay.
Procrastination makes a bad impression.
Offers of Employment Acknowledge receipt of offer, restating title of position and salary and expressing your appreciation. Indicate the date you will let the company know your decision and be sure to act before that date. In declining an offer of employment, express your appreciation for the offer and for the company's interest in you. Letter Seeking Additional Information Indicate an interest in the company and its offer, if an offer of employment has been made. Be specific about the information that you need.
