Thank You Letters

The Thank-You letter is critical! Say something more than "thank you"-- so put some thought in to it! Remind the interviewer one more time how your skills will be an asset to their staff. The Thank You letter gives you the opportunity to reiterate or add anything you forgot to mention in the interview. Your letter should be clear, to the point, and no more than one page.
