Blog Post: Leaving a good last impression

1. Ask the recruiter where they are in the hiring process for the role - ask if they have a timeline.

2. Ask about their training program and how they orient people to their company.

3. Ask for contact information and for the best way/time to contact them.

4. Let them know that you are available for any further questions – make sure they know the best way/times to contact you.  

5. Thank them for their time – recap “why you” - in one sentence tell them briefly why you think you would be a good fit.  Thank them again. 

Follow-up tips:

1. Do any homework or follow up tasks requested by the employer immediately.  Quick turn around time and your attention to detail will help you stand out.

2. Follow up with the employer with consideration to their hiring timeline. 

3. Keep all communication professional, whether it is a follow-up email, card, or a conversation with a receptionist – this is the time to make a good impression.
