Candidate Tip: How to Ask for Feedback After an Interview
You’ve just finished an interview. Maybe it went well, maybe it didn’t—but what if you don’t get the job? Instead of seeing it as a closed door, you can turn the experience into a stepping stone for growth by asking for constructive feedback.
Here’s how to do it right:

1. When to Ask
Timing is everything. Reach out within 1–3 days after the interview—soon enough that the discussion is fresh in the interviewer’s mind, but not so soon that it feels rushed.
2. How to Phrase It
Keep your request polite, professional, and concise. For example:
|“Thank you for taking the time to meet with me. While I understand I wasn’t selected, I would truly appreciate any feedback you could share on how I might improve for future opportunities.”
This shows gratitude, humility, and a willingness to grow.
3. Keep It Professional
Avoid emotional language or defensive tones. Remember, feedback is a gift. Even a small insight—like improving your examples or refining your CV—can give you an edge in your next application.
The Takeaway:
Not getting the job doesn’t mean you failed—it means you have an opportunity to learn. By asking for feedback respectfully and at the right time, you can turn every interview into an investment in your career growth.
At Suits Recruitment, we coach candidates to use these moments as fuel for development, not discouragement.
