You just successfully completed a job interview. Good work!<\/b><\/p>\r\n

The next step is to send a polished thank you email to your interviewer<\/a> and further demonstrate your enthusiasm (and competency!) for the position.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

It\u2019s tempting to simply copy\/paste an email template that you find online. However, to truly come across as a unique candidate, personalization is key.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Interviewers can sense a cookie-cutter message a mile away and a copied email suggests laziness on your part. We\u2019re going to provide templates here, but we highly recommend that you customize them to your interview \/ interviewer.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Below are three customizable <\/span>interview follow-up email templates<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
