Follow up letter
Should I send a hard copy letter or is an email ok? I have to call and follow up in a few days so I'm not sure it would get there in the mail. I just don't want to look like I didn't make much of an effort by emailing. Also if it is an email should I send an actual word doc or is it ok just in the body of the email. Thanks
If you have the interviewer's email address, then that is the most expedient way to follow up. If all you have is the postal mail address, then send the letter as soon as now so that it will get there as soon as possible. There is no reason why you cannot do both, actually, noting that you are sending the letter both ways: VIA ELECTRONIC AND UNITED STATES MAIL Mr. John Doe 1256 Whatever Lane Wherever, USA 22223 Dear Mr. Doe: I would like to express my ................................................ Sincerely, Me Want Job (I cannot figure out how to single space for the address block, but you know how it goes)
what if I got an email back from the company saying that they have hired somebody, can I ask or find more about the person that got hired if i belive I've been discriminated?
No. Sometimes you just don't get the job. Asking about the person is not going to help you in any way. It's better to put your energy to better use...like finding another job to interview for. Don't bother.
You can ask, but you probably won't get any information, certainly nothing that would confirm that you were discriminated against. You could go to your state's labor commission or one at the federal level, but how are you going to prove that you were't selected because you didn't dress professional enough, did not do well in the interview, weren't skilled enough, etc...? | |
