7.12 Thank You Letter Sample
Below you will find an example of a Thank You letter. This example contains all the essentials needed, however when you create your own Thank You letter, you should add a personalized highlight of the interview so the letter doesn’t sound generic or impersonal. For example, after the first paragraph, the candidate could add: “I very much enjoyed hearing about your upcoming Fit-For-Care fundraising campaign happening this November. Your ideas around how you plan to involve both the residents and their caregivers are very exciting”. Alluding to a specific part of the interview conversation adds a small, but important personal touch to the letter.
