Thank-You Notes

September 6, 2002

Here are the results of Monster's most recent poll.

Monster asked job seekers on the Monster homepage and MonsterTRAK
"Do you send thank-you notes following interviews?"
and asked employers on Monster Office HQ users
"Do you expect to receive thank-you notes after interviews?"

The results are as follows:

The Monster Meter asked, "Do you send thank-you notes following interviews?"

MonsterTRAK asked, "Do you send thank-you notes after interviews?"

Monster Office HQ asked employers, "Do you expect to receive thank-you notes after interviews?"

Summary of Results:

"Job interviews are a vital part of the job search process, and according to the latest Monster Meter poll, a majority of employers and job seekers still view sending a thank-you note after an interview as an important element of proper job searching etiquette. However, job seekers from both Monster and MonsterTRAK, a career resource for college students and alumni, still prefer the traditional thank-you letter route, while Monster employers would rather receive thank-you notes via email."
