Following up with interviewers

[shiningbright]

In response to thank you notes, some interviewers state something like "if there's anything i can do to help, please let me know." Is it expected that I reach out to them? What kinds of things would I ask for help with?

Well, whatever you do, don't write to ask for help directing your grandfather's $5 million donation to the right office at the med school.

It just seems like a nice sign off on a letter and not an offer you should take anyone up on.

Yeah, that just sounds like a courtesy sign-off to be polite. We have policies to prevent others from doing anything untoward on your behalf. It's you and your application for the most part.

Got it, thank you both!
