About this tool

The follow-up email is a small, free advantage that most candidates skip. It is read in about ten seconds, and it is the last impression a hiring manager has of you before they compare their notes.

It is also easy to get wrong. Too long and it looks needy. Too generic and it proves you were not listening. The good version does one specific thing: it refers to something real from the conversation, adds one useful sentence you did not get to say, and stops.

This tool handles the three moments that matter, and each needs a different message: straight after the interview, after a week of silence, and after a rejection where the relationship is still worth keeping.

Questions

How soon should I send a thank-you?

Within 24 hours, while the conversation is still fresh in their mind and before decisions are made.

How long do I wait before chasing?

Until a few days after whatever date they gave you. If they gave none, about a week. Chasing sooner rarely helps.

Is it worth replying to a rejection?

Often, yes. Second-choice candidates get called back more than people expect, and a gracious reply is what makes that call possible.
