If your interviewer gives you his business card at your interviewer, would you typically follow up with an email to say thank you / nice meeting you etc.?

I hope this is a poor attempt at a joke rather than a serious question, OP.

Duh

Yes, always. I usually ask for a card if they don't offer one.

Once I started interviewing people I was appalled at how many don't follow up with thank you notes.

Yes, follow up with thank you email quickly

Exactly what EY1 said, my understanding was that me sending a thank you email was hardly going to make a difference to the outcome of the interview, but I see what you're all saying and it seems like it's part of etiquette, so makes sense to drop a thank you note, especially if they've given a card! Thanks

Think about it this way. It may be etiquette but if things go well you'll be jump starting your relationship with people at the new company you're joining.

I turned down offers from a number of places over a year ago and now they're thriving. No one is inviting me in this time around. Airbnb: $450k at the time -> $1.2M now, Snap: $450k -> $780k now, Doordash $380k -> $700k now. I'm still at $500k TC where I'm at. Don't always play safe guys.
