--- tags: Module 11 --- # After the interview There's two things you absolutely must do after every interview. &nbsp; ## 1. Ask questions At the end of the interview, the interviewer will likely ask if you have any questions. Always be prepared! Asking questions shows you have done your research and that you are interested. What can you ask? Anything that you would like to know - don't be shy! - Ask about some interesting facts you found during your research. - Ask what they are looking for exactly in a candidate. - Ask what the next step in the selection process is. - Ask how they would describe their team culture. The stage is yours. &nbsp; ## 2. Follow-up Always follow up. Many don't and it can make a huge difference. Again, this shows you're interested. It also shows you know how to do sales well, as following up is a key activity. What should you say? - Thank them - Reassure your interest - Mention something interesting that came up in the interview - Share some additional resources or answer a question you didn't know how to answer during the interview Here's an example: > Hi [First Name] > > Thank you so much for taking the time to talk yesterday. It was a pleasure to learn more about [Your Company] and how you approach [Industry] with innovative [strategy]. I’m very excited about the opportunity to explore a potential career with the [specific team]. > > I couldn’t agree more with your philosophy on surrounding yourself with incredible people [specific detail discussed during the interview]. For me, [Company Name], is about developing meaningful relationships [company value]. I think it’s rare to find a company whose [asset] truly reflects its values and mission so closely. > > Again, I appreciate the opportunity to have shared my background and interest in [Position] with you. I think my experience with [industry, skill, or Product] aligns perfectly with what your team is looking for, and I hope to prove that. I thought I would share a few links to projects that I mentioned during our conversation as well [insert hyperlinks or attachments]. Thank you, and I hope we’ll be in touch soon! > > Best, > > [Signature] &nbsp; ## 🤔 What next? By now you should be ready to tackle any interview they throw at you, right?
