Hiring manager writing "join our team" in marker rather than sending a follow-up letter of interest.

Follow up Letter of Interest Template

Sometimes, reaching out once just isn’t enough.

Plug your information into this simple follow up letter of interest template to reach out to nonresponsive job seekers to set up an interview.
