thank you letter or card - sham - ArchivalUser - 01-16-2006 which one is better, any format can you suggest will help me. thanks 0 - ArchivalUser - 01-16-2006 email 0 - ArchivalUser - 01-16-2006 I usually write and mail letters...I think that's the best way. I can be wrong though... 0 - ArchivalUser - 01-16-2006 me too matchgirl, but i heard they send hand writing cards. any one give more hints about this. please you bue card from stores 0 - ArchivalUser - 01-16-2006 by using paper, you are hastening the global warming, and it doesnt improve your ranking! 0 - ArchivalUser - 01-16-2006 so email works good 0 - ArchivalUser - 01-16-2006 I was sending cards and hand written letters initially to PDs but no response was coming out. Now I have started emailing them. Atleast some of them have replied. So it is not the matter of email or hand written or cards. It all depends on your interview and credentials. 0 - ArchivalUser - 01-16-2006 thanks mammon, you're right, what kind of cards you sent? 0 - ArchivalUser - 01-17-2006 I usually email them right after and follow up with a "Thank You" card (the ones you buy at Hallmark stores, packs of 10 or 20) and hand write a few lines & reiterate my interest. I have gotton responses to both from programs.
