When I had a couple of interviews before taking my current job, I sent
hand-written thank-you notes in little note cards with some nice picture or
artwork on the front. I figured the added personal touch couldn't hurt. :)
Yeah, my handwriting is a bit messy, but putting the notecard through the
laser printer seemed a bit too impersonal for my taste. ;)
