Sending follow-up thank you notes and emails is very important in business communication. Customers, colleagues and other correspondents appreciate it when you thank them. Many employers expect a thank you email after giving you an interview. Thus, if you fail to send a note, you may lose the job.
For this discussion board, you will write a thank you note to your potential employer. Before starting, be sure to read the Resume and Cover Letter Assignment in this module and choose a specific job and employer.
Next, assume that your resume and cover letter were polished enough to get you an interview. You just got home after this interview and immediately begin to craft your thank you email. Be sure to address the note to a specific person and use an appropriate subject line. You may make up additional details to fit the scenario, as needed.
See pages 385-386 in your textbook for a few pointers about thank you messages. Remember to state something specific and positive about the interview, such as a particular area that interested you. You should also take the opportunity to emphasize a skill set that demonstrates your ability to perform the job.
Post your thank you note to the board and respond to two classmates. Remember you cannot view your classmates' posts until you enter your post.
