Same - get it out of the way ASAP

On the way

Within hours

If there's a quick turn around on second rounds (like undergrad or bschool recruiting) same day. In the real world I do next day. I found in real world they have you interview with lots of people (3-6 in my experience) so I take a little more time to personalize the notes.

Email vs hand written?

Wtf?! ^^ are you serious

Know people who do both

We make decisions at the end of the day. If you wait til the evening, you're already too late. Both rounds.

Absolutely mandatory and fine to email. I've dropped people who didn't send a thank you/follow up. But think about the message and don't use a standard cookie cutter. Personalize based on each person. And proofread that baby upside down and sideways.

Emails were sent! I have a final round tomorrow but it's a phone interview with my potential boss who's based out of the UK. No need to send a thank you email after that right? Since it's a phone interview...or should I? Acn1, were they even good candidates? Seems pretty small to not hire someone over it.

One thing we haven’t spoken about are your salary expectations. Could you have a think and let me know early next week as well as your employment status (residency permit)."
