Do people still send thank you emails after interviews? I’m wondering if I should given I was told that interviewer emails are never shared and I would have to go through the recruiter to get my message relayed.

TBH, doesn’t matter. My decision on whether to hire someone is pretty much made as soon as the interview is over. So the email after the fact would not change anything. It’s just a nice courtesy.

I used to use hand written thank you notes before Covid if I sent on-site. I agree though, if emails were said not to be shared then leave it be. Maybe connect on LinkedIn if you must

Normally pretty easy to figure out someone’s corporate email. Name@company.com. I think sending is still a good idea and I respect those I interview when they thank me. A good way to get feedback later too

No “thank you note” swings the needle on a “maybe”.

It’s a classy move imo

Sending a thank you email can only help your chances. It can help you stand out, and it gives you an opportunity to add anything you may have missed or misrepresented in the interview.

If you don't have the interviewer's email, just send it to the recruiter. Frame it like "Please share with X that I really enjoyed meeting her and chatting about the company" etc, and hope they pass the messages along. If they don't, no harm done. If they do, that's one extra positive thing the hiring manager hears about you that they probably won't hear about the other candidates.

Following. I had this question last week too. Same reason, they don't share and ask you to go through the recruiter.

Additional question, thoughts on adding them on LinkedIn and passing your message on that way? Or just to "keep in touch"?

During Q&A, you can basically ask anything but that (how the interviewer felt it went, whether you got through or not). The reason is that he or she typically need to calibrate with other interviewers to arrive at final decisions.
