How Noticing Emotions at Work Can Build Trust

 

Knowingly or not, we send out non-verbal cues all day that tell people how we’re feeling. A strong manager not only recognizes these signs but takes action. In return, this builds trust in the relationship.

 

What WorkMonger is reading right now.

 

Emotional Intelligence at Work Matters

 

We are always discussing the “nice to haves” vs. “must-haves” for a position with our partners. Here, the Association for Talent Development talks about why EQ is moving to more and more “must-have” lists.

 Why a Thank You Note Can Matter in a Hiring Process

I was recently thinking about thank you notes and why they matter in the hiring process. On the one hand, they feel like a silly formality. And honestly, they kind of are. When you’ve just spent weeks, maybe even months, interviewing for a role, the hiring team should be thanking YOU for all the time you spent in their process (and I always encourage hiring managers to do just that).

  • Here’s a different way of thinking about whether or not you should write a thank you email or note after an interview: at the end of the day, a hiring manager wants 100% of the job offers they make to be accepted, and for that reason, they’ll want to offer a position to a candidate who is not only qualified for the role but also seems likely to accept the position. 

A thank you note, one that goes beyond thanking an employer for their time but gets specific about your interest in the role and team, is an opportunity to reiterate to the hiring manager that you really, really want to get that job offer. And that’s powerful in shaping how the hiring manager feels about making you an offer. As I said, they really, really want you to accept the position if they make you an offer. So next time you’re considering whether or not to write a thank you email after an interview, write it. It’s just one more tool in your job-seeking toolkit.
