Send Thank You Notes
If you just went on a successful interview make sure to get each interviewers name and email or physical mailing address. Send a brief thank you to each person thanking them for taking the time to meet and consider you as a candidate. Include your contact information for further questions or follow up as well. Not everyone does this simple follow up to interviews. These thank you notes can impress the interviewers and most importantly keep your name fresh in their memories.
