Some of the older material I have read suggests a follow-up letter, but I don't think that is appropriate here because a) the formality of it outstrips the position I applied for to an extent and b) seems like kind of an antiquated method to me - has anyone here ever done something like this?

I was thinking of simply making a follow-up phone call to thank the person for taking the time to see me and express gratitude for being considered for the position - basically, I am trying to make myself stand out from the other people who will be interviewed for the job. Are there other things I could try that I am not thinking of?

Thanks in advance for any advice anyone has!
I think this is a good plan. An email is okay but could be seen as a bit too informal, maybe. Plus if you get to talk to the person it may lead to a conversation which should be a positive.
