Stumbled on a stat about interview follow-ups that made me pause

I was reading a report from a hiring platform last week that said only about 24% of applicants send a thank-you note after an interview. I always thought it was way more common than that. Has anyone else seen a shift in what's considered standard post-interview etiquette?

That number sounds about right from what I've seen. The real shift is that a quick email is now the standard, not a handwritten note. It feels like the expectation moved from a formal letter to a simple, polite follow-up. Many younger candidates might not even be taught that it's still a common courtesy.

My buddy in HR says they barely get any thank you emails anymore.
