Is it customary to receive a response back from a hiring manager and creative team when you send a thank you note and a follow up email? It's been a week since meeting.

No I wouldn’t count on it. Very rare to have someone acknowledge the thank you note

No. Otherwise you'd get caught in a thank you loop. You thank them for the meeting. They thank you for the note. You thank them for thanking you. And so on.

I’d suggest following up with HR (or recruiter) to say the meeting went well last week and ask about timeline and next steps. They’ll usually give you a sense of what stage they’re at

Oh if you know someone internal then ask them to scout it out for you

I have only ever received a response to my post-interview thanks when I ended up not landing the job.

I respond to every thank you, even if I disliked the candidate. I respond, in the very least, with a thank you for taking time out of your day to come see us. I guess I'm atypical 👀

That's awesome, OP! Way to go 👍

Art Director - so did you hear back about the job?

Have an offer from a dream company but I'll need to go in at a lower level.

If I hit all my goals (ie, prove myself) within that time frame, I'll get a promotion and salary adjustment.
QUESTIONS:
Should this be in writing in the offer letter?
How detailed should it be? I assume I won't know what goals to set till I start...
