Do people still write thank you emails after an interview or do people send messages on LinkedIn?

Email. Keep that channel open

I’m from the south and all about a handwritten note... however... often times, hiring takes place really fast and if a handwritten note isn’t there the next day, they’ll assume you didn’t send anything. So I typically opt for the speediness of an email, always within 24 hours of the interview.

Just a short e-mail. When I’m hiring I don’t care what you say as long as it’s grammatically correct with no spelling errors. I just want to see a note. Shows me that you’re thoughtful and detail oriented.

All my jobs i have gotten i didnt say shit after interview.
Every desperate jobless person is sending in those emails looking over-eager. How do you stand out from the rest? Make a great first impression and then let them reach out.
Trust me, when they are short on staff & deliverables are piling up, they will hire you within a week

Email after the interview for me. Now youre in touch!

Thank you email for sure. I had one of those rare cases where I didn’t get the job, but in my followup they said they liked me and would keep me in mind. I said thank you and that I would add them on Linkedin to stay in touch. I got hired for another role there about a month later.

I tend to do LinkedIn messages, especially when I don’t get emails of those I’ve interviewed with. It helps out later because if you don’t get the job, it allows you to stay in touch with them throughout your career passively (or actively). As a result, they might reach out later based on your LinkedIn activity (going freelance, an article you shared, etc).

I’m old school about it, I ask for a business card at the end of an interview. (A lot of times they dont have one, but they kind of apologize about not having one) Maybe its just me but I feel like people strongly associate Linked In alerts with being annoyed, and Linked In messages with desperation.

Hi, been stuck in the contract analysis/review cycle. I have asked a few recruiters how to make a lateral move into in-house. They told me to focus on contract management, which I have been doing for the past year. Now that I have, are there any sites besides “jobscan” that I can use to make sure my resume fits the job descriptions? Does anybody know any recruiters that could help me, as well?

My AD coworker (not currently my partner) just got hired at a new agency and wants to bring me along as his writer. I'd love to join. He told the recruiter at that agency about me and sent my book. I also have another former coworker (creative) who put in a good word for me.

Should I reach out to the recruiter, too? Or is that overkill after two recos? I don't want to be bothersome. But I do want to show interest..

This all happened on Friday, if that matters. Thanks!

Hi,

Although, i checked on Google as well average pay they are giving is 9.7 lakh
