* Job Hunting Tips
– If you’ve
had a job interview should you send a thank you? Almost half of the recruiters surveyed by Careerbulider.com
indicated they would discount or
completely ignore candidates who didn’t extend that courtesy. Sending a thank you is a good way to restate
your interest and point out things that may not have been covered by the interview. Read more about this at the MSN
Careers webpage.
