Dear Hans,

It was good to talk to you this evening (morning in California...). Thank you very much for your feedback. The companies you mentioned are certainly worth to look at. I would appreciate very much if you could provide me with referrals at:

• Company1
• Company2
• Company3

Also, please don't hesitate to ask me if there is anything I can help you with. Living in the Silicon Valley sometimes helps to get information hard to find elsewhere.

Sincerely,

Rowan,

It was a pleasure to meet with you yesterday. I appreciate very much that you took the time out of your busy schedule. Thank you. You provided very valuable feedback that will help me to successfully transition into a PR agency. Needless to say that I'd be very happy to hear about opportunities at your company, as I am very impressed by the agency's work.

As you suggested I will keep you posted on my job search and let you know when offers will arise. In the mean time I will contact Leslie at XXX and Roni at YYY.

It was very nice to talk to you today. I really enjoyed our conversation and want to thank you for the feedback you provided.

You painted a fair description of the job I was anticipating. I feel certain that being based in San Francisco with the Company3 team will make me successful in the position. I have the experience of selling and developing business, at Company1 and then at Company2.

I wish you great success in your new job.

Sincerely,

Rowan,

It was very nice to meet you again yesterday. I really enjoyed our conversation and want to thank you for the feedback you provided.

From my conversation with TJ, and Whitney, I had a very consistent feedback. I totally share their enthusiasm and the team spirit approach to the work. Gary painted a fair description of the job I was anticipating. I feel certain that being based in San Francisco with the team will make me successful in the position.

I'm convinced that I would bring these assets to the team:

• Account management/client interface: Thanks to my corporate background at a blue chip company like Company1, I had to deal with a wide range of people from various functional areas. I understand what TJ calls the "corporate beast".
• Management, motivation: I managed teams of up to 7 people, for the launch of a new product, keeping their enthusiasm high to reach the objectives. The bests have been promoted.
• Business development: I have the experience of selling and developing business, at Company1 and then at Company2. I am also active in several professional associations and well connected into the French community in the valley.

Needless to say that I look forward to working with the YourCompany team. If I don't hear from you on Thursday, I'll give you a call on Friday.

Sincerely,
