How to Follow-up on a Great Interview

So you just had a great interview. What do you do next? If you find yourself in this situation, the one thing you shouldn’t do is sit on your hands and wait for your future employer to make the first move.

Career Builder has a simple and effective list of things to do to keep your interview fresh in the company’s mind.

• Within 48 hours, follow-up with a value-added response.
• Call, write or personally visit your potential boss once a week with a value-added benefit.
• If you are turned down, write a very cordial thank-you note to HR and, more importantly, to the person who interviewed you, thanking them for their time and consideration.
