Do you follow up after interviews and if yes why? I've always thought if they're interested in moving forward I'll hear back vs me chasing them.

I think a short and sweet thank you for the time with a nod to something valuable in the discussion can go a long way to show interest

Lots of people think it’s old fashioned but a quick thank you note is respectful imo.

Absolutely agree, short and sweet is the way to go.

I 100% give extra credit to the candidates that take 5 min to send a little thank you. Regardless, I’ll end up going for the one I think is really the best fit, but if everything else is pretty equal, that thank you note can give you that little edge.

like

I think a “thank you for your time” message stands out vs not saying anything at all. You can just have one written out and replace the name of the interviewer and maybe add an anecdote from the interview for bonus points. Doesn’t take much time but, the human element is lost from the hiring process so, being friendly doesn’t hurt you. In general “following up” and “taking initiative” is seen as positive in corporate worlds

Always send a thank you email it makes them remember you !
