Did we commit an interview faux pas?

[CynthiaOK]

I was just reading on a "scholarship interview" site that one should always follow-up an interview with a "thank you for the interview" note.:001_unsure:

We didn't do this and now I'm wondering if we should and whether it would be too late to send one.

What do you all think?

I don't think it can hurt to send a note, even a bit late.

OK, thanks for the encouragement. We sent one off.

I don't think it can hurt. But having been on committees that were interviewing prospective candidates we only really noticed when someone sent an odd note. For example, one guy sent a large picture of himself in a Speedo windsurfing with his dog. It got him noticed...but not as a good thing. I can't remember ever thinking "oh, no thank you note..this person is toast." :)

LOL! Well, we won't do a photo although ds does have a cute dog.
