How to Follow Up with an Employer
Haven’t heard back from one or more jobs in machine learning that you applied for? Take the matter into your own hands and follow up with the employers. Here’s how:
- Get the timing right. Wait at least a week after submitting your application. This will give recruiters enough time to screen all the candidates.
- Contact the right person. Reach out to the recruiter mentioned in the job posting or research who they are on the company’s website. You can also simply call and ask for the right contact.
- Choose the best medium. At this point in the recruiting process, a professional and short follow-up email is the perfect medium.
- Nail your subject line. Pick a concise and relevant subject line such as “Follow-up on XY Job Application – [Your Name]”.
- Get straight to the point. Greet the recruiter by name, then state which role you applied for. Next, express your continued interest and enthusiasm for the role.
- Highlight your fit. Briefly mention your broad background and a couple of skills that make you the perfect candidate. Keep it to one or two sentences.
