Do you still send thank you emails to people that interviewed you? Used to do that when I was a student but not sure if you still do when interviewing as a professional

Only if offered the role will I ever do that. If not offered the role then I won't waste my time drafting any emails as they won't care too much about it. One less e-mail in my inbox is awesome!

I send a brief email it right after the interview- if the interviewer seemed thoughtful and someone I’d like to work for. I hate how companies can’t even be bothered to send an automated rejection letter. It’s disrespectful. I try not to be an a$$ like that

I only do it if I really want the role vs. just casually interviewing with no expectations

This is why I always do it. I always want to pretend it’s my top choice until I see the offer letter

I do it always, regardless of how the interview went or whether I want the job or not. It’s a matter of professional courtesy.

How do you feel about leaving a company shortly after joining?

I've been told by people to not be loyal to companies & I've seen posts in forums where people have talked about leaving workplace 1, at workplace 2 for like 3 weeks, and already interviewing for workplace 3 (and the recruiter for workplace 3 doesn't even know that the person has left workplace 1). That feels a little disingenuous and...bad etiquette maybe? What do you think?
