[quote=Anonymous][quote] Employers typically have hundreds of applicants per job. Can applicants typically say the same about interview opportunities? [/quote]

Employers also have people who are paid to respond to applicants.  Every job applicant deserves either an offer or a rejection letter, and I will die on this hill.  When I have been in the position of hiring others, I have always stuck to this.

I did not send thank-you notes to interviewees specifically, but I did not expect them to do so, either.  Presumably, one who believes that applicants should send them should also believe that prospective employers should do it as well.

[quote]People who contend employers shouldn't be thanked for an interview because employers don't thank applicants just don't grasp the power structure of work. That's why it's called a job, not camp Kumbaya. [/quote]

I don't think that you understand that work is an exchange.  I provide my labor in exchange for money.  It is an equal relationship and not a one-sided one.  Either party can end the relationship at any point, assuming at-will employment.  Work is not a one-sided exchange, and neither are job interviews.[/quote]
