I personally never send thank you notes or emails. I hate receiving them and I've had many people say they don't care about them. I just say thank you at the end of the interview and call it a day.
If they liked you from the interview, the thank you note won't make them like you more and could hurt you (typos, too familiar, annoyingly ingratiating). If they didn't like you, no thank you note is going to reverse that.
I disagree. I’ve been involved in OCI interviews for 2 years and interviewed probably 40+ candidates and I always take note if I don’t receive a thank you email (a note/card is not necessary). Although, I’m bothered if it’s just a form thank you. That being said there have been people ive been on the fence about and then I said- well s/he didn’t even send a thank you email. The thank you email doesn’t hurt but not sending one could; so I’d err on the side of sending.
Takes two seconds to write a quick one saying thank you for the opportunity and here is my contact info if you have further questions. No reason not to do it. Some people like it, some people don’t care either way. I’d rather make sure the people who are expecting one are satisfied.
A couple of sentences within 24 hours. Don’t try to bullshit or be cute. Short and sweet.
I think it really depends on the person. I will say we just interviewed two legal intern candidates that were both qualified and seemed like a good fit. Only one sent a thank you email and that is who my boss hired.
I’ve sent thank you notes and would probably continue to do so. But as someone who has interviewed candidates, a thank you note or lack thereof neither helped nor hindered their chances at the job.
Agree. However it did solidify a decision for me to pick the top candidate who I would have likely hired without the follow up email.
I’m a hiring partner and, to be honest, it really doesn’t matter. If you email and your good, cool. If you don’t and your good, cool. Trust me, no one ever was like “I was going to give this really impressive person an offer, but I don’t recall getting an email from them, so nope moving on”. Y’all can say what you want, but you know the decision has never went down to whether someone wrote an email (or your not the decision maker).
Super important. Even a quick email within one or two days. Makes a really good impression. Precise timing is up to you, but within 1-2 days is a good timeframe.
All the associates we’ve hired have sent them. The ones who didn’t had a lower shot of getting hired, and tbh have all left the firm. I don’t think they’re connected but I do think it indicates how much you connected with your interviewers and how good of a fit you feel the firm is.
Doesn’t have to be anything big, just thank them for their time and say it was a pleasure meeting them and getting to hear more about the firm.
A handwritten note mailed the next day is absolutely impressive.
