Post Interview Letter is Butt Kissing! Professional career advisors advocate the idea or writing a post-interview thank you letter. They affirm that a post-interview thank you letter does the following: • reminds interviewer of your technical skills and qualifications • shows your courteous nature • shows your sincere appreciation for the interviewer’s time and consideration for the position As Penn and Teller say, “That’s BS!” An interviewer doesn’t need a post-interview thank you letter to be reminded of the candidate’s technical skill level and qualifications, because he/she has the candidate’s resume to remind him/her. A candidate’s level of courtesy can be assessed easily during the interview. Further, a simple “thank you,” a firm handshake and a smile are sufficient enough to convey the candidate’s sincere appreciation for the interviewer’s time and consideration. A thank you letter is redundant and is a form of ass kissing. Do you agree or disagree?
