Just wondering what if anyone sees a correlation between getting a SA offer when interviewers actually respond to thank you notes to those that gets ghosted and gets rejected.

I think I got responses to thank-you emails at all places where I eventually ended up with an offer. But it is not an absolute indication, as I also got responses from some places where I didn't get an offer.
Have gotten an offer when I didn’t get a response so don’t think it matters
if they don't respond within 3 minutes at the latest, they think you are a fat slob and a total POS.
I always make sure to send out very personalized thank you notes to my interviewers. That being said, one year I didn't get any response but still got an offer, while this year I received a few responses and got an offer from them. In my opinion reading the content of the note is a more valuable insight into your odds than strictly receiving a response or not.
Anecdotal and small sample size, but I had three interviews last week and converted one.
Bank 1 - rejected
2 thank yous, no reply to either
Bank 2 - rejected
first round - 2 thank yous, 2 positive replies
superday - 4 thank yous, one basic reply
Bank 3 - got offer and accepted
3 thank yous, one basic reply and one positive reply
Weak correlation but partially indicative of how it went
