I also got a hint: pass the bar exam.

I got an in-the-mail thank you card from someone I interviewed once. We didn’t end up hiring them but it was a nice gesture. I know when I was first interviewing for jobs ~20 years ago it was common advice to send a followup / thank you.

There's is nothing worse in job hunting than dealing with companies with this mentality/culture.

Degrade yourself while we give you the runaround or you don't get the job! Fuck you. Hell is not enough, I cast the Locust Plague upon ye 🦗🦗🦗

Thank you emails are good. The real question is, should you space it out. Like a day or two after the interview? Because sending one right after does zero IMO. You need to keep yourself on their minds and as we all do....we forget.

So keep yourself in their minds and give it a day or two after the interview

Thank you emails and letters are old school ways of show appreciation for the chance for a job. IMO this is a bit dated but totally fine especially if the job is a customer facing one where their manners actually matter.

I don't want a follow-up email. Either you were selected for a second round, or you were not.

Pestering me about it isn't going to help.
