Tips for Customizing Your Note

• Send it within 24 hours. Speed shows enthusiasm and professionalism.
• Reference something specific you discussed. This proves you were engaged and makes the message memorable.
• Keep it concise. Three to four short paragraphs is ideal.
• Proofread carefully. A typo in a thank-you note can undo a great interview.
• If you interviewed with multiple people, send a personalized note to each one rather than a group email.
