To whom?? It is rare that a candidate obtains email or other contact information of the interviewer. Companies have forgotten basic courtesy.

Good point, and that’s by design. The HR department doesn’t want a flood of paper resumes and cover letters, because they want to be lean and mean, i.e. they’re lazy. But if you get the interviewers business card, there’s your addressee. Not that they’ll have time to look at the email or letter, but you never know, and it’s a major differentiator in this day and age.

You grab a business card from their desk or their assistant.

I’ve always asked for a business card, or their email address after the interview (if they haven’t already given it to me in the beginning).

If they don’t or would rather not, I would email the recruiter and ask he/she forward my thanks to the hiring team.

“To whom?? It is rare that a candidate obtains email or other contact information of the interviewer.”

That’s the interviewees responsibility. When I was showing kids out of college how to land interviews and post interview strategy, it was their job to get the interviewers email addresses. For one, the agency has the email address. Also, the receptionist has the email addresses. Finally, ask the interviewer for his/her email. Asked why, the respondent should be truthful and say to send a thank you note.

That sounds like a cop-out. How is it possible for a candidate not to already have that information? How would they otherwise know where to go and who to see?
