Write the follow-up messages that keep a candidate on the radar without being annoying.

  • Asked to write a post-interview thank-you

What it does

Follow Up Sequence is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. 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'.

Its SKILL.md is about 850 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Job search and resumes. The repository describes itself as: 1255 professional Agent Skills for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor & Codex — PRDs, postmortems, leases, medical bills, layoffs, go-bags, new countries. Plain markdown, MIT, in… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Asked to write a post-interview thank-you
  • A follow-up after no reply
  • A nudge on a stalled application
  • A check-in sequence during a job search

Example prompts

  • “checking in”
  • “/follow-up-sequence”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1cbf1f0. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Follow Up Sequence loads about 852 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 104 tokens; SKILL.md has 436 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~104
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~852

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

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:

WhenStepGoal
Within 24hThank-youreinforce interest + one specific takeaway
~1 weekValue-add nudgestay visible by adding something, not just asking
~2 weeksGraceful status checkone 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.

Example Trigger Phrases

  • "Write a post-interview thank-you."
  • "They haven't replied since the interview: write a follow-up."
  • "Nudge a stalled application."
  • "Plan check-ins during my job search."
