As of 13 August 2026, AI can write an interview follow-up email.

What to actually do

1. Do it yourself

   The route this page recommends

   A chat interface, no skill needed, and roughly 15 minutes until you can act on the result.

   How to actually do it

   1. Open your interview notes, the job advert and any emails from the employer, then gather the role title, company name, interviewer’s name, interview date and agreed next step.
   2. Write down one specific topic discussed and one accurate example of your experience that is relevant to the role.
   3. Paste the prompt into a chatbot and replace every bracketed slot with your own details, leaving any unknown field blank rather than guessing.
   4. Ask the chatbot to produce the subject line and email, then use its marked confirmation points to identify anything you need to check.
   5. Compare every factual statement in the draft with your interview notes, CV and the employer’s emails, and remove any claim you could not defend in a further interview.
   6. Read the email aloud, change wording that does not sound like you, confirm the recipient and address, then send it from your own email account.

   Prompt

   Write a concise interview follow-up email using only the facts below. Do not invent achievements, promises, names, dates, discussion points or next steps. Thank the interviewer for their time, mention one specific topic from the interview, briefly reinforce my interest in the role, and include a genuine point that connects my experience to the role. Use a warm, professional UK tone without clichés, flattery or exaggerated claims. Keep it under 150 words. Give me one subject line and one email draft. Mark any sentence that needs my confirmation before sending.
   
   Role: [job title]
   Company: [company name]
   Recipient and preferred form of address: [name and title, if known]
   Interview date: [date]
   Interview format or stage: [details]
   Specific topics discussed: [details]
   Relevant experience I mentioned: [details]
   Genuine point I want to reinforce: [details]
   Agreed next step, if any: [details]
   My name: [your name]

   Open it prefilled in ChatGPT or Claude, or copy it into Gemini, which takes no prefill link.

2. Use a tool built for this

   Second choice

3. Hand it to a person

   The distant third

   A person who owns the outcome does this end to end, worth it when the failure is dear.
