Let’s continue…

Let’s break it down and let me show you how an amazing “thank you letter” can be.

“my method is so amazing

that you will have a 100%

success rate to impress the

hiring managers if you put

in the time and effort Deniz Sasal

PwC Consulting Manager






“excited?

Good… Read on… Deniz Sasal PwC Consulting Manager






“before I get there

however, would you

like me to mention

a bunch of no-nos? Deniz Sasal







Here they are;

Send that thank you letter as soon as you can. You don't want to look like you have got better things to do.



Make it specific. Make them feel that you wrote that letter for them

Enough about you. You have already talked about yourself, skillsets, experience. This is no longer the time for it.



Ok, let’s get to the good bits…

“

“have you noticed a

common thread in your

application process so

far? Deniz Sasal PwC Consulting Manager






Let me tell you what that is;

It’s you who is getting something from “them”

It’s you who asks and them who gives.

It’s you who wants the job.

It’s you who needs this role.

it’s supposed to be a relationship. Like a

first date. It wouldn’t be fun if your date is

the one who constantly asks for things,

would it? “

It’s about value exchange. So far in the

application process, what have you given

the interviewer that added value to his

life? Are they a better person now after

having met you? Did you open their eyes

to ‘something’? Did they know “one more

thing” now, having met you?

“

Yes, maybe they need a new team player in their organization, but they don’t need someone who “takes” as much as “gives”. These are all subconscious messages.

“so, this is what I

suggest… Deniz Sasal







I suggest you leverage 3 of the 6 influence triggers from Robert Cialdini. In simple terms, he says in order to get “YES” you need: reciprocity, social proof, commitment and consistency, liking, authority, and scarcity.

“let’s dive deep into

reciprocity Deniz Sasal







Reciprocity is when you give something to someone for free, especially if it’s of high value, then they want to reciprocate. They feel like they want to do something back for you. In simple terms, you add value to that hiring manager’s life with - be it a research paper, an event attendance, gifting a book through Amazon, whatever it is, and they feel like they need to reciprocate.

“this is a subconscious

process… They don’t go

about “Jane gave me this

event attendance so let me

hire her” No! But

subconsciously, they like

you now

Deniz Sasal PwC Consulting Manager






Now, you need to do a bit of research to establish reciprocity; You need to go to your best friend; Google and research a potential ethical bribe that will add value to the hiring manager’s life.

You need to spend a lot of time

finding the ultimate ethical bribe

that is worthy enough to share.

What good is it going to give you

if you send out a link to a crappy

article? It’s going to hurt your

chances more than it will help.

“

A couple of tips for your research;

Make sure it’s a reputable source. I suggest you can look for articles from PwC, other big four, or major consulting companies. Pretty much all consulting firms have thought leadership articles in a particular topic. These articles are, to start with free, and incredibly valuable. I know I have taken part in developing a couple of thought leadership pieces with PwC and you can’t imagine the resources we commit to delivering these documents for public use. They are immense

While searching, write the company name + topic + pdf. Most of those thought leadership pieces are in pdf format. It will help you generate more quality results very quickly.

Once you finish your initial research, I need you to create something similar to below and fill it out with at least 10 options.

Once you finish your list, start

empathizing…

If I am on the receiving end of this content,

will it make me better educated, more

informed, more intellectual, smarter, or will

it yield more opportunities?

If you can answer “Yes” to any of these

questions, then you are on the right track.

“

“the next bit is the

easiest one…

Craft that good ol’ thank

you letter” Deniz Sasal PwC Consulting Manager
