If you are an industry hire (one consulting firm to another) do you send thank you emails to all your interviewers? Used to do this religiously in B-school. I don’t even have email addresses cont.

I think thank you email is the dumb and we should do away them.

Why is it dumb?

Of the phone interviewers and some in-person interviewers don’t leave their cards. What’s the etiquette these days?

I do recruiting interviews for my current firm and i rarely get thank you emails. Even when I do, I don’t care for them.

I interview for my team and don’t really care if the candidate sends me a thank you or not. By the time I get the thank you note, the decision has already been made.

I interview for new analysts and interns and honesty don't give a single crap about thank you notes or emails. Won't help at all.

Yes

I interview for my team as well. I don’t ever respond to them, but like any interview communication — grammar issues, the wrong company name, etc., can definitely send you over an edge. You’d be surprised at how many experienced folks do it too, not just the youngins’.

So, I’m interviewing for a position that fits perfectly, HR likes my profile, had great conversations with them. Today I had a Panel interview with HR and the hiring manager. The manager is not experienced, it’s her first r manager role and she’s been in it for 3 months. I was prepared but was out of breath the entire interview, had a knot in my throat, had trouble finding my words. It’s like I had PTSD when this manager came into the picture. Ever had that?
