Sample Closing Statements

Bringing up salary at the end of the interview can send the message that you are more interested in the money than the position or company itself.

This is not the impression that you want to leave the interviewer with.


Go to handling the salary question to get tips on how to deal with the pay issue during your job interview.

Be Aware of Your Body Language

The interviewer will be watching you as you leave the job interview. Make sure your posture is confident and your face retains a relaxed pleasant expression. Avoid sighing, slumping your shoulders, looking worried or unhappy. This will be the last picture the interviewer has of you.

Ask for the Interviewer's Business Card

This will ensure that you have the correct details to follow up on the interview including writing a thank you letter.

Keep Positive

Don't get discouraged if the interviewer does not make an offer at this point or set up a second interview. Often there is a specific process that needs to be followed before this can happen, such as consulting with other people or conducting job interviews with other candidates. Make sure your body language and verbal communication remains positive till you leave the company.

Following-up

As soon as possible after your job interview, write down the key aspects of the interview that you can refer to in your thank you letter. Follow up with your recruiter, make a note of when you can call the company to check on the status of the hiring decision.

Your exit is as important as your entry. Use the closing tips for job interviews to make sure that your final impression is a positive one.
