Dear Experts, I interviewed at a company recently and haven't heard back yet. The hiring manager told me he was interviewing a lot of people for this job and wouldn't make a decision until after the first of the year. I sent a hand-written thank-you note to the hiring manager right after my interview. I feel like we had a really good connection. So, I was also thinking perhaps I should send him a holiday card, but wondered if that would be seen as trying too hard. What do you think? Here is how our CAREEREALISM-Approved Experts answered this question on Twitter:
Are you terrified of screwing up a job interview? Does the thought of writing a cover letter horrify you? Are you scared to network with others? What do you even say, anyway? If you're struggling to overcome your job search fears, this live event is for you.
