So we're approaching the deadliest deadline of all - Thanksgiving. So far I've only received one interview and am a little bit nervous of my chances and would love to pad it out a bit.
I got a response today from a potential letter writer to an email that I sent him back in July (guess it got lost in his inbox), requesting the usual materials, etc. At this point, I'm keen to tack anything on to my application that might make me a desirable candidate. Is it too late in the cycle to try and get this letter written? Would it have a net positive effect on my application or would my letter writer's efforts be wasted?
