the interview went well but it's what you do afterward that could make or break your chances of getting an offer here are four steps you should take within 12 hours of your interview and one to avoid at all costs I'm not your mother but you know you'll have to write a thank-you note right and I need to everyone everyone who interviewed you individually and by name and make sure you personalize each email guess what hiring managers often compare thank-you notes so no cutting or pasting make sure those thank-you notes contain at least one piece of meaningful content something that expands on an answer you gave or includes a relevant link to a topic you discussed it's time to manage your social media accounts as if your interviewer is combing through them they most likely are after your interview post intelligent tweets about your industry or the economy and please avoid stupid Instagram pic speaking of social media it can only help to send your interviewers requests to connect on LinkedIn and don't just click a button say something about how much you enjoyed meeting and discussing X Y or Z finally the post interview don't to end all don'ts stalking all of your post interview communication should come within 12 hours then give your interviewers at least a week before reaching out again there's a fine line between eager and desperate and if you don't understand the difference between the two you run the risk of damaging the good impression you made during the interview now get going with those thank-you notes [Music]
