remember to…

act quickly

Don’t wait around to ask for feedback.

The quicker you ask for it after hearing the unfortunate news that you haven’t got the job, the more chance you have of receiving quality feedback before hiring managers forget about you!

remember to…

be polite

No one will do you a favour if you don’t ask them nicely.

Firstly, thank the employer for the opportunity to be considered for the role and be courteous when asking for the feedback.

Thank you for the opportunity to be considered for the role and letting me know the outcome of your decision.

If you have the time, I would be grateful if you could let me know what aspects of my candidacy I could improve upon for employment in the future with any feedback you might have from the interview….

remember to…be prepared

The nature of feedback means that you might find out things you don’t want to hear!

Be prepared for all the comments an employer might make, including the ones that you might disagree with.

Embrace everything an employer has to say about you, the chances are other employers will feel the same way!

feedbackis a gift!
