thank you for interview

I sent both my interviewers letters thanking them for the interview. I did not have access to a fax machine and the ony email I have is the Craigslist email. I sent the letter attached to an email sent to that address, asking for the letter to be forwarded to the two directors. Do you think this is sufficient, or should I fax them over when I have access to a fax machine later?

Re: thank you for interview

I would mail a hand-written thank you.

It's more personal.

I did this with the 2 ppl who interviewed me at my current position and was offered the position within a matter of days.

I already emailed the letters and I know they are doing a second round of interviews next week, so by the time a hand written letter would get to them it would be too late....

I dont think would ever fax a thank you note. I always mail them. Not fond of emailing either.

I don't think it would be too late IMHO.

My boss often schedules a lot of interviews on various days. He will then narrow it down to he has liked best.

If you were the best and went first, it often makes anyone else shine less ;).

Re: thank you for interview

I just wanted to share what I found when I googled it. I read that most people say if mailing will take too long a fax is appropriate and email is only appropriate if the company uses it frequently. So if you got the interview via email a thank via email is appropriate. Another suggestion is that if the job is local to hand deliver the thank you. I wish I would have read this because I could have delivered it on my lunch break today. The one thing everyone agreed upon is that no matter how you deliver the message make sure to send one! Chat Icon apparently only 5% of all job searchers follow through with this step, so it stands you apart!

Hope this helps others.
