    I’ll probably get a lot of downvotes for this, but why exactly should I send a thank-you email?

    What about the potential employer – why don’t they send one to me? I took the time to prepare my application, sent them all my documents, and showed up for the interview.

    I’m not begging for a job – I’m applying for one. They’re looking for someone who will generate more value for the company than they’ll pay in salary. That’s a business transaction, not charity.

    So again – why should I be the one to send a thank-you email?

    Personally, I think it’s enough to thank them in person during the interview.
