Thank you or No Thank You?
I just completed a second-round interview (yay!) with a company I’m really excited about. I had a great conversation with one of my potential future managers.
Now I have a question:
Since the meeting was set up by HR, I don’t have the manager’s email address. Should I connect on LinkedIn to express my gratitude, or is it better to stay quiet?
I appreciate your advice!

Congratulations on making it to the second round of interviews! That’s a great sign that they’re interested in you.
It’s definitely a thoughtful gesture to reach out and thank the person you spoke with. Sending a LinkedIn message is a great way to connect and express your appreciation for the opportunity to interview. You can keep it brief and professional, something like:
“Hi [Manager’s Name],
I just wanted to thank you for the opportunity to speak with you during my interview. I enjoyed our conversation and learning more about [Company Name] and the team. I’m excited about the possibility of working together!
Best,
[Your Name]”
This way, you maintain a professional connection and reinforce your interest in the position. Good luck!
