A friend of mine just had an interview and asked a question that I would love you to answer: Should she send her thank you note via e-mail or snail mail? My suggestion would be to do both. That way, she'd be able to use e-mail to immediately thank the person who interviewed her. By sending a thank you note via snail mail, my friend would also be able to stay in her interviewer's mind a few days later when they receive they letter via snail mail. What do you think? One or the other or both?

They might be making a decision quickly; if they spoke to 5 people today and it's down to you and x....your prompt e-mail and enthusiasm for the job might tip things in your favor! Both can't hurt, but a decision is likely to have already been made by the time a letter arrives in the mail.

In anticipation of any interview...
1) have at least the script for a hand written thank-you note ready,

1) have at least the script for a hand written thank-you note ready,
2) have the note mostly written BEFORE the interview,
3) take it with you on the interview,
4) after the interview stop at Starbucks (or wherever) and finish the note with any little details from the interview (includes addressing the envelope),
5) put it in the mail before you get home.
My four BEST hires (for them and for me) were easily put over the top when I got their timely thank-you notes.
The note from MY VERY BEST HIRE was mailed the same day and delivered to me the next day.

Will be in Chicago on Sunday-Tuesday on our way to St. Paul, MN: any suggestions besides a White Sox game we plan to take in?

If you have time, check out Lake Bluff - short train ride from downtown. Great place to exercise, house gawk & you can check out the "beach"
