Any advice on sending business thank you letters for interviews?
Should I just get normal envelopes and print the letter or get small envelopes with actual cards? And any good places to buy supplies besides Walmart?

Write a fucking personal note dumbass

If you do it, just use smaller blank cards.

I usually bake a cake and with icing I write a personal thank you. I send this cake to the recruiter's personal home, and even say hi to their wives sometimes. I still haven't landed a job, but I'm still truckin'
Really I'm just wondering where to buy the supplies and which supplies to pick. I'm going to do information interviews opposed to job interviews btw

Literally says in the article that nobody actually cares about thank you letters. If OP is genuinely thankful he can say so once he's hired.

I don't think you need thank you notes for job interviews, but at least a thank you email is almost expected. I bought cheap thank you cards from Wal-Mart, hand wrote generic thank yous on them the night before my interview, did my interview, and handed my notes to the secretary before I left. I dunno if they did anything for me or anything, but I did get a job so there's that.
As someone who has interviewed and extended job offers to offer a hundred professionals, I'll give you some perspective on this:
1. Yes you should do it. It won't make a large amount of difference (see below) but it can't hurt and it might help. This applies in any professional, white-collar hiring scenario. Those who scoff at the idea can go back to their fast-food jobs.
2. My feedback on your interview has already been submitted to the hiring staff days before your card arrives. I generally have to give my comments on your interview within 24-48 hours. Once my recommendation is submitted, my role is pretty much done. So most of the time, I already decided whether you're getting the job even before your card showed up.
3. But, sometimes I have to fight (or not fight) for my hiring recommendations. Not everyone agrees on candidates, and sometimes we're called upon to see how strongly we feel. Debates happen, and consensus gets reached eventually. And sometimes decisions do get delayed, due to schedules, vacations, etc.
So in some cases, the decision-making can happen after I receive your note, which might persuade me to put in a little extra effort on your behalf, since you showed me respect and courtesy.
I've had three interviews in my life, all were very pleasant affairs and I have job offers within several hours after each of them.
On the one hand I'm happy but on the other whenever I feel all the people griping about job interviews I feel like I've been cut off from what's a very powerful set of experiences shared by most of the population.

Just send a short note through email.

Only betas and cucks send thank you notes.
You should be immediately having sex with the interviewer's spouse or grandparent in order to assert dominance.
