Interview Thank-You & Follow-Up Templates

Stay top of mind after the interview.

The thank-you note is the last thing a committee reads before deciding. Most candidates send some version of "thanks for your time." These templates give you the structure to reference something specific from the conversation — without sounding like you rehearsed it.

What’s inside

• Six templates covering first round, panel, second round, phone screen, dinner, and rejection follow-up
• A short rubric for what to reference from the conversation
• Timing guidance (24 hours is the ceiling, not the target)
• The follow-up template for the role you didn't get but want to stay in touch on

You may not need this if: You already send strong thank-you notes and know what to say.
