Do people in London send post-interview thank you emails?
Just interviewed for a position based in London. I know it’s common in the US to send thank you emails after an interview but do people in London typically also follow the post-interview thank you email tradition? Would it be frowned upon if you send a thank you email?
I have only done this like once and no student has ever done this to me (might be cos I'm a mean interviewer).
I don't think people care though haha.
I always sent thank-you emails, and they always got a response, too.
Based on the most helpful WSO content, the practice of sending post-interview thank you emails is not specifically tied to any one region, including London. While the context provided doesn't directly address regional practices, it's generally understood that thank you emails are a professional courtesy that can be appreciated globally. However, it's important to consider the tone and content of your email to ensure it aligns with professional norms within the specific industry and region you're applying to.
In the context of London or any other place, sending a thank you email is seen as a gesture of appreciation for the interviewer's time and to reiterate your interest in the position. It's unlikely to be frowned upon as long as it's well-crafted, concise, and professional. Just ensure that your email is personalized, mentions something specific about the interview to demonstrate your attentiveness, and reiterates your enthusiasm for the role.
Remember, the key is to make your thank you email thoughtful and not overly persistent or invasive. Given the professional environment in London, as in most places, such a gesture is typically seen in a positive light, provided it's done respectfully and appropriately.

Stop being lazy
Just send the thank you emails
There’s literally no downside

Not about being lazy. Some cultures might just feel that it's too pushy and invasive.

How soon after would you send? Is same day too eager?
In the US, generally aim for same day.
Cheers. Assume its the same in LND
