Real answer: I usually say thank you in person at the end of the interview. Like "Thank you for your time." Sending an email restating that would be wasting their time, no?

as someone who hires people, yes, it would

I guess you just got to know your audience

I won't mark you down for it but I won't even bother responding and it won't influence my decision either way

Nah, these people stir air for a living. They appreciate others who also know how to stir air. Sending a pointless time wasting email is the epitome of this discipline. If you want in, you need to show them you can do it too. If you want to be an actual productive member of society, you wont do it and find a position where you don't have to resort to such menial tasks.

You can always respond like.

“Hello,

As we discussed earlier today, you will be giving me an employee contract for $XXX,XXX

Best regards. “

Then CC as many people as possible.

That’s how these people work, right?
