Thank You Letter

A thank you letter should be mailed to all interviewers and networking contacts within 48 hours after your meeting.  This can be a short handwritten note or a formal letter.  Most importantly, you want to thank the interviewer for his/her time, highlight a point(s) raised or specific topic(s) covered within your meeting and reiterate your interest in the position.  This will remind the interviewer who you are and demonstrate your genuine interest in the company.  Exercise care in writing your follow-up letter, because this is your last opportunity to showcase why you are the right one for the job.
