Hi All,
I have 7 years of experience in total in SAP Integration technology and I have been offered C2 manager position with Capgemini with a package of 30.5 LPA.
Is it good to join? Can I still contribute technically at C2 role? Or would it be pure managerial role? Also please let me know how much variable pay would be paid at this role? I have around 2.8L variable per year as a part of the package.
Any pointers will be highly appreciated Capgemini

Do it if you really want the job. Keep it short and sweet. Send an email within 24 hrs. If they reply back quickly it is a good sign you’re still in the running.
Hi (name of hiring manager), thanks for taking the time out of your day to discuss the position more in detail. I want to express my continued interest in the position and hope to hear of next steps.
Sincerely, Your Name.
(I used to work at Amex and it was one of my favorite companies to work at)
Definitely like the piece about directly expressing your interest again

I would.
You have nothing to lose
Fair point!
Probably a bit controversial but it may come across a little desperate to some people. If you had a great interview and are confident in your ability then that’s all that matters. An interview is a two way process - they should be thankful to you too. Good luck either way :)

I used to hate receiving thank you emails when I hired individual contributor engineers. They mostly sent generic emails that sound identical. Now that I mainly interview Director level, the emails are more personalized and I enjoy reading them. They also become memorable and I’m inclined to add it to my decision process.
Personally, I would always send a thank you note to the person that interviewed you. It shows manners, initiative and I don't think it comes off as desperate at all, it is only common decency.
It never hurts! Good luck!

I personally have never been swayed by receiving a generic thank you email.
The only time I've done it is if the interviewer and I discussed a specific topic during the interview and I want to send them more information. For example, if you mentioned an article and they expressed interest, I've sent the article or other links relevant to the topic.
I feel that! I tried to tie it back to what was said in the interview and reiterate the skills I could bring to the position.
Thank you letters are great follow up to an interview. It will get you back at top of minds when they review candidates.
The time it’s taking you to post this and read responses you could have sent a thank you email. Do it. Good karma and it may just tip you over to the hiring side. 3 lines long.
I wish I had remembered to do that and get contact info on all the interviewers. (And remember all their names) I had an instance where I could remember two of the three interviewers names but not the third. I had asked a coworker to email to ask the name of the third team member but not to mention that it was because I couldn't remember the name of the third interviewer. She did the exact opposite.
It never hurts to send a thank you note. Even if it’s short one
A thank you note is really an opportunity for you to reiterate a skill you have that is important to the position or to cover some skills that you missed.
A thank-you note after an interview is an additional opportunity for you to express the value you bring to the table; and show what a great listener you are by giving a couple of bullet points of what you heard them say (preferably, the company’s challenges) and how your talents that you bring will help them address those challenges.
Generic “thank you for your time! It was a pleasure to meet you!” notes go straight into Trash. Thoughtful notes with the specifics of what had been discussed are memorable. They make you stand out from the crowd, because it shows that you care enough to spend the time and write something thoughtful.
Wether or not the company responds to your thoughtful note also tells you something about their culture which will help you to determine if you want to work there.
There’s a human on either end of a thank-you note. Talk to them as a (valuable) human, not a candidate who needs a job.
