"description": "Write the follow-up messages that keep a candidate on the radar without being annoying. Use when asked to write a post-interview thank-you, a follow-up after no reply, a nudge on a stalled application, or a check-in sequence during a job search. Produces a timed sequence — what to send, when, and the exact wording — that adds value or shows interest at each step rather than just 'checking in'."

Follow-Up Sequence Skill
Most candidates either ghost after an interview or pester with "just checking in" — both hurt. The right follow-up is timed and adds something each time: a genuine thank-you, a useful thought, a graceful nudge. This skill builds the sequence — what to send, when, and the wording — so you stay top-of-mind and look like someone people want to work with.
Required Inputs
Ask for these only if they aren't already provided:
- The situation — post-interview thank-you, after-no-reply nudge, stalled application, or an offer-timeline check.
- The details — who you spoke with (name/role), the role/company, when, and 1–2 specifics from the conversation to reference.
- Any deadline — a competing offer or a stated timeline that changes the cadence.
Output Format
Follow-Up Sequence: [situation] — [role] at [company]
A timed sequence — each step says when, why, and the exact message:
| When | Step | Goal |
|---|---|---|
| Within 24h | Thank-you | reinforce interest + one specific takeaway |
| ~1 week | Value-add nudge | stay visible by adding something, not just asking |
| ~2 weeks | Graceful status check | one polite ask, with an easy out |
For each step, the full message (subject + body), kept short:
- Thank-you (24h): specific to the conversation — reference a real moment, restate fit in one line, no generic "thanks for your time."
- Value-add (≈1 week): share a relevant article, a thought on something discussed, or a quick portfolio link — a reason to reappear that isn't "any update?".
- Status check (≈2 weeks): a short, warm ask about timeline, with a graceful out and (if real) a mention of your timeline/competing offer.
End with a stop rule — when to let it go (and how to leave the door open).
Quality Checks
- The thank-you references something specific from the actual conversation
- Each follow-up adds value or interest — not a bare "checking in"
- The cadence is sensible (24h → ~1wk → ~2wk), adjusted for any real deadline
- Messages are short and give an easy, graceful out
- There's an explicit stop rule so it never tips into pestering
Anti-Patterns
- Do not send a generic "thank you for your time" — reference a real moment or skip it
- Do not "just check in" — every touch should add something or it reads as needy
- Do not follow up too fast or too often — respect the cadence; desperation repels
- Do not issue ultimatums — mention a real competing timeline gracefully, never as a threat
- Do not follow up forever — define when to stop and leave the relationship intact
Based On
Post-interview and job-search follow-up practice — timed, value-adding touches with a stop rule.
