I have one person working for me who brought copies of his award notices from his previous employer. It's your one and only chance to show off what you know and can do.

I have a doubt can bringing in code samples be misconstructed as having some external help?

Here's the key: Every person I've hired (or recommended to hire) has had something in particular that made them memorable. If I sit down to make a decision and I can't remember who you were or what we discussed, you didn't impress me enough and I won't hire you. If you put your name in front of that person again, along with a reminder of what you discussed, it keeps you in memory. If you're running through resumes and you see each name once-even if it's only half a dozen resumes-then each one has very little chance to stick with them. Second, it keeps your name in front of that potential employer. (See, I told you I know how these things work.) If I get an email the next day saying 'Thanks ' and what you really liked about your visit, it leaves a nice warm fuzzy. for all I know, you were still in the office when you wrote it! You could even have drafted it while waiting, and then simply hit send the moment you walked out the door. If you send a note right away, it's no surprise that you're still thinking about it. I'll continue by explaining what a delayed note in this case does.įirst, it tells the employer that you're still thinking about the interview and what was discussed. To start, I'll directly second Andy's comment that :Īndy Lester wrote:I think it tells the recipient that you're just cranking through job prospects hoping to find something that happens to fit.

Thank you notes are NOT the right place for a quick response. I do understand quick responses are the norm. I may not be a 'Millenial' but I'm not all that far off. I'll take a moment to add to your comment on the 'BlackBerry Thank-You' and why this is a No-Go. Andy Lester wrote:Here's a blog post from last year on the topic called 'Don't fight to stay average.'
