Why should I be sending a thank you email? You should be sending me one for showing up and staying if this is how you act. I am giving you my time during the interview that you are paid to be at.

I get it’s polite but you should be the one reaching out first.

    I'll send an email if:

    • I still want to work there after interviewing
    • it's to a peer (i.e. someone I might see in the future at a conference or another job)
    • I really did enjoy talking with them
    • they're on the hiring committee (as far as I can tell)

    Then I'll send an email like: "hi, it was great talking with you, I hope things go well and we end up working together." Then if we do run across each other professionally in the future, we're more likely to remember each other.
