10. Follow up the interview with thanks. Within twenty-four hours, send a postcard or a brief memo to thank the interviewer for the interview opportunity given to you. Include also the specific things that were discussed during the interview serve targeted. Call five to ten days later to tell the interviewer that you are still interested in the vacancy.
