Not sending a thank you email?

<p>Hello,
So I was entered by like 4 people today and I forgot to ask for a business card from 3 out of 4 of them.
I guess it can be looked at as a positive thing because the conversations were really good and had to end abruptly (and goodbyes rushed) because we were deep in the middle of conversation before having to switch to a new person.
I thought it would be easy to find their emails online but i've had no luck! :(</p>

<p>Is not sending a thank you email THAT bad??</p>

<p>Don’t look at it that way. You may not have their business cards, but that doesn’t mean you can’t email them. When I interviewed, not every interviewer gave me a business card… that just meant that I had to work a little harder to figure out their email addresses (in one case, I saw that the company used last name and first initial as the email address, so I just figured out two people’s emails based on their names). It isn’t the end of the world if you can’t figure it out, but you should put in an honest effort to thank the person who interviewed.</p>

<p>Of course, if you are reading this now, it’s too late - thank-you notes should be sent within around 24 hours of interviewing.</p>
