Do you actually think thank-you emails after interviews make a difference anymore? I still send them as it feels respectful and gives me one last shot to reinforce why I’m a strong fit, but sometimes I wonder if interviewers even read them. Part of me thinks it’s old-school courtesy, part of me thinks it’s just noise. What do you think? Still worth doing or outdated ritual?

I'm in my 30's and I think its worth doing. As long as its simple I think its effective.

Same here. A short, genuine message goes a long way!

Yes I do think they make a difference. I don’t think it hurts when you don’t send one, but sending one makes sure you pop up back on the recruiter’s radar shortly after the interview.

Yeah, I agree. It’s a small gesture, but it helps you stay top of mind, especially if the hiring team’s deciding between similar candidates.

Yes, I do think they are worth doing personally

Rejected by HBS and GSB post interview... feeling pretty low. Was hoping I'd get one after interviewing. Not sure what I could have done differently. 750 GMAT, >3.8 GPA from top 10 UG, multiple promotions, strong recs, well-known employer. The process feels so random... I know there are so many qualified candidates and so few spots but I wish they had seen it in me.

What would your reaction be if the company you applied to asked for you to get permission from your current firm before moving forward? The situation is the company you're applying to is a client of your current firm, and you've already gone through the interview process with the new company. Thoughts?
