Interview Thank you letter sample

Only about 10% of the candidates who have been interviewed for a job opening take the time and trouble to send a thank you letter to the person who interviewed them. Sending a thank you letter isn’t necessary, but it will help you stand out from the rest who are vying for the same position.

Here is a sample interview thank you letter. Note that it is formatted to be sent via email.
