A Couple of Etiquette Matters
As you receive invitations to interview with employers and then interview with them, please remember a couple of basic etiquette rules that job-seekers sometimes forget:
1. If you receive an invitation for an interview outside of the on-campus program -- whether the invitation is received via email, phone, or letter -- be sure to respond, even if you aren't interested in going through with the interview or have accepted another position. Sometimes we hear from employers that students haven't responded to invitations to interview or even job offers! Always respond so that employers know what their next step should be.
2. After an interview, be sure to send a thank you note. You can handwrite them on a note card if the card is professional and your handwriting is neat. Otherwise, it is best to type out the letter as you would a cover letter. As with you cover letters, we are happy to review thank you notes.
