Rationale 1: Calling the human resources director the next day is not appropriate.
Rationale 2: It is not appropriate to call the staff nurse.
Rationale 3: Sending a post-interview thank-you letter within 24 hours of the interview to everyone who interviewed is appropriate. The letter should be brief and thank the interview team for the interview and their interest in the candidate, and should mention the candidate's enjoyment of the meeting.
Rationale 4: Calling the interviewer every day is very unprofessional and may hurt one's chances for the position.
