Below is a sample thank you letter for after the interview from someone I have been helping.

Question from the WEB:  Faith wants to know how to create thank you letter she can send after her interview.

I have an interview next Tuesday for a state job with the dept. of social services, foster care division, for the state of VA. I have interviewed with them before, and know the kind of behavior interview questions asked. I think, hope, your interview questions & answers will help me get the job this time around.

Given that I already know the interview panel for next weeks interview, I have already prepared a follow-up interview thank you letter,

Will you take a look at my letter and let me know what you think?

-Faith

Don’s response to a Sample Thank You  Letter

Okay, so I took a look at Faiths thank you letter and let this be a perfect example of what you should NOT do.   She capitalized the first letter of every word because she thought it made for easier reading.  Big mistake.  All she is doing is demonstrating is lack of business writing skills.

So anyway, I reworked her letter and sent this sample thank you letter back to here:
