Dumb biglaw TY question

Post by Anonymous User » Fri Apr 25, 2014 7:53 pm

No need to tell me I'm over-thinking this question - I know that I am! Nervous to start the SA and don't want to start off on the wrong foot.

The firm I will be working for this summer sent me a finals care package. The typed card attached was signed by several members of the firm, including the hiring partner, the administrative coordinator, and associates/partners who interviewed me. What's the protocol for the TY email - should I email all of them at once, email them all individually, or just the hiring partner?

Thanks!

Personally I wouldn't send a thank you at all for that. It'd be one thing if it was from a firm in a small town, but not biglaw.

If you do feel the urge to send someone a thank you, then I'd send it to the admin coordinator and maybe the hiring partner if you had a great relationship with him from your interview.

Curious to see what others say, I'd imagine most will agree with no thank you. They know you appreciate it.

I wouldn't email anyone. Not to burst your bubble, but they probably didn't even know what they signed. They got some cards with a "sign this" note.

I agree. If you feel the need to email anyone, just send a short thank you email to recruiting.

It would be weird if you sent a thank you. Don't.
