When the Job Search is Over, be Sure to Say Thanks
If you still haven't found a job after months of job-hunting, it might be time to cut your losses and move on. While it might seem like great news that you're done with this search, there's a good chance that you've been passed over for another candidate. It's important to let the recruiter know that their decision was fair.
Check out this blog post here to learn more about when is the best time to say thank you so much!

In a recent study by Indeed.com, the average hiring manager received over 4,000 resumes in their inbox. As you can imagine, sorting through all those resumes isn't easy. If you're going to make it past the initial screening process, it's important for you to be a great communicator. It's easy for recruiters to get distracted by the hundreds of applicants they receive and not take the time to thoroughly read each resume. Therefore, your job is to stand out rather than blending in.
While all communication from employers is important, you should tell the recruiter that they made a great choice when they picked you. You can do this in an email or over the phone. You can also send a thank-you letter or email them on LinkedIn. Even if you don't get the job, do take some time to express your gratitude and share how much it means to have such an opportunity.
Good luck! And be sure to share your success story with us if you land that new job!

Conclusion
The Job Search Coach, Jennifer Gauda
I am a big fan of thank you notes. Yes, even if you do not land the job. I have found that the way to get anybody to remember you is with a phone call or email. Even though it is an impersonal way to do business, it will carry more weight than any writing ever could for me. If you are applying for a job and you need some help getting that note written then give me a call or shoot me an email and we will set something up to make sure that you get it out there promptly! 480-812-3311 jennifer@thejobsearchcoach01....
