Follow-Up Emails When You Haven’t Heard Back After Interview

4 Killer Follow-Up Emails When You Haven’t Heard Back After Interview

By Jonathon

These “killer” follow-up emails are the answer to what to do if you’ve heard no results from your interview and are left sitting there wondering “if there is still a pulse”.

The author says: “An interview follow up letter can be incredibly powerful. The reason why I suggest the email follow-up is because it makes it easier for the Hiring Manager to reply (either good or bad). In other words, if you are out of the mix, he can easily take you off the hook if he wanted to. No response could still mean there is a pulse and a positive response allows you to reply back and reinforce an interest. This is why a follow up email after interview is so important. Also, it opens a dialog and as long as there is 2 way communication there is a pulse.”

He then goes on to give complete templates, with advice on using each for the following types of emails:

1. Is the Position Still Available Email (Follow up email after interview no response)

2. Request another Interview Email

3. Portfolio for Your Review Included Email

4. Forgot to mention during the interview

About admin

Since 1996, I have been both web publisher and author of AdvancingWomen.com, a site designed to help level the playing field for women and like-minded men in careers, business and particularly web biz, and now social media. I have provided career and business content to Fortune 500 companies like Citibank and Hearst, been published internationally by Cambridge University Press, by universities, military academies, medical and business societies, and financial organizations in Australia, India, and Saudi Arabia and translated into Mandarin Chinese, reaching a Chinese audience of over 2 million. I also served as financial news editor for Hearst’s MoneyMinded.com/Woman.com. I am a past member of the Board of Directors of National Association of Women Business Owners ( NAWBO-San Antonio); am active with the White House project, whose mission is to encourage women’s participation in politics and to place women in the pipeline to reach the highest offices in our land; also active with Win With Women, National Democratic Institute, Washington, D.C. to promote women in political leadership in 65 countries and various organizations supporting the increased use and funding of technology. I attended Wellesley College and graduated from Columbia University with a degree in writing. I come from a *very* entrepreneurial family and was, for many years, a serial entrepreneur myself always looking for a new horizon to explore. The latest horizon has been the dawning of the Internet, which I migrated to and set up tent ,shortly after Netscape came out with the browser in 1994. ( As those of you involved with the Internet know, in Net time, that is somewhat equivalent to when the dinosaurs were crawling out of the swamps. I have many interesting stories from those wild and woolly pioneer days.) For the past 13 years, I’ve been working on the Internet. I’m all about building community.
