Say "Thank You" to Your Job References
During your job search, you should keep your references informed and periodically update them on your progress as you search for employment. It is also very important that you send thank you notes to all of your references after you land a job. Thank them for their assistance and tell them where you are now working and how much you appreciate their help.
Sample Thank You Letter
I wanted to drop you a note telling you that I have accepted a position as (job title) with (name of company). My first day of employment will be (date).
I also wanted to thank you for allowing me to use you as a reference and for giving me such a glowing recommendation. If there is any way I can help you in the future, please let me know.
Again, thank you for all you have done for me.
