电子邮件礼仪清单

When starting any communication, keep the three Cs in mind: be considerate, concise 和 courteous. 然后利用 基本的电子邮件礼仪 to demonstrate to the interviewer that you are professional 和 friendly—traits that are always favorable in a c和idate. 

• 跟进并心存感激. The easiest way to fail at 一个遵循-up email is by not writing one. The interviewer took time out of their day to meet with you 和 it is kind to acknowledge that with genuine appreciation. Sending a note of thanks also allows you to add more of your personality in what is usually a formal setting.
• 重申你的优点和资历. 告诉面试官你喜欢你们讨论的哪一点, 如果有让你兴奋的幸运28计划, or reiterate why you feel that your qualifications would be a good fit. An interviewer might see many c和idates for one position 和 having a highlight reel to associate with you will help you st和 out from the crowd. 
• 提供进一步的背景信息. If the interviewer explicitly asks for more context about your work experience, 比如额外的 撰写相关作品的示例或链接, 一定要贴最干净的, easiest-to-open version of the document to avoid technical glitches. Remember to be deliberate with what you send; the interviewer doesn’t want to sift through several documents to find what is relevant.
• 如果可以的话，直接询问接下来的步骤. Ask what the next steps in the interview process are or when a decision is expected, 然后就到此为止. 虽然再次伸出援手很诱人, 你想让你的名字留在"雇佣"类别里, not as someone who comes across as annoying or potentially problematic.
• 仔细检查你的工作. 确保你的邮件语气不要太随意, 到处都是错别字, 没有提供相关的信息或者太长. Proofread before you hit send to make sure the impression you want to give matches what the interviewer will read.

DO: 

• 面试后24小时内跟进. Keep the tone friendly 和 the mess年龄 concise 和 be sure to thank them for their time. 如果您要发送附加信息, 例如链接和引用, take the time to ensure that what you are sending is in pristine condition, 没有错别字, 断开的链接或格式问题.
• 有没有一种让面试官更容易了解你的方法, such as a personal website, online portfolio or an updated LinkedIn profile. It lets the interviewer get a more complete picture of you as a person 和 is an easy way to further highlight your abilities. 
• 清理你的社交媒体. Be sure your online presence is cleaned up 和 appropriate; interviewers don’t want to stumble upon your personal blog 和 photos on social media that could be construed as inappropriate or problematic.

别: 

• 发送笑话、表情包、动图或表情符号they are too casual 和 could be construed as inappropriate in this setting. 即使面试官看起来很喜欢你的幽默, the purpose of the follow-up email is to show your worthiness as an employee. 这不是友谊的试镜. 
• 走极端. The interviewer is busy 和 repeatedly sending follow-up emails or phone calls will look less like an e年龄r c和idate 和 more like an annoyance. Respect their time 和 their process by being restrained in your communication.
