After the Informational Interview

Always Send a Thank-You Note

Be sure to send a thank-you card or letter within one or three days after the interview. This is an effective way to keep in touch and to be remembered by people. Let them know they were helpful and thank them for the time spent. As a nice touch, quote something that the resource person said back to them, word for word. Ask them to keep you in mind if they come across any other information that may be helpful to you in your career research. Include your address and phone number under you signature.

Keep a File of Prior and Future Interviews

For possible future reference, keep a list of all the people you have interviewed or plan to interview. You may even plan to keep a special notebook or cards with interview notes on your questions covered. Include the main things that you gained from each interview. This file will be a rich source of information as you conduct your occupational exploration.

For more information, contact the Employment Services Office.
