Consumer goods follow-up
Following up on a Procter & Gamble application
A short, polite note five business days after you apply. Here is a template you can send.
Dayfive is not affiliated with Procter & Gamble and has no inside knowledge of how it hires. This is general advice for consumer goods employers.
When to send
Five business days after you apply. One more note around day ten if nobody replies, then a short closure note and let it rest. Check your dates.
Who to send it to
Write to the recruiter for the role. If you cannot find a person, reply on the thread from your application confirmation.
