Being Classy

A client emailed me to say that after a recent interview, the medical school dean called her to say he was impressed with her candidacy and the hand-written thank you notes she had sent.

Writing thank you notes is easy and goes a long way. Remember to hand-write the notes, keep them brief and send them immediately after your interview day.
