Would it be appropriate to send an e-mail a thank you card to your new boss after being hired? You go to a job interview next week and learn you have been chosen for the opening. The person interviewed is also going to be your immediate supervisor. Thank you card or not? Or would it seem like you are too hard to embrace too soon?
Nice touch. Go ahead.
It's a nice thought, but the most appropriate thing to do is work harder for you to learn as much as you can and just show how dedicated you are. It could be interpreted as embracing in place, so I've never done. So that's why we do not, for the most part, give gifts to his boss, it looks like trying to buy support.
Well, if I were the boss and I got this email as a nice "thank you" after hiring someone, I think it was weird, and I wondered if I n ' had perhaps made a mistake in hiring!
So unless the position you have just received was a very cutesy-poo, like, say, Disneyworld, or school of clown, or something like that, then do not ... it's a little professional.
If you feel compelled to say thank you, then do it, but keep it as a business and professionals.
I've never heard of doing this (and I'm not exactly young). I suggest you do not. Especially not a thank you card. If you feel like it was important to you, simply send an e-mail confirming your start date and that you will enjoy the opportunity to work with them. Do not get all gushy and emo in it. You need to be professional and serious.
I think it is very appropriate. If you were to say that you are grateful for the opportunity and that you plan to work harder on your, it would show Iniative and ambition. (The two best qualities of an employee may have) Bottom line is, people do not practice etiquette and manners enough. Do not feel like your something wrong to do the right thing.
I think it's a nice gesture, but for some it could be seen as kissing up. I do not thank your boss immediately. I would wait a while for him to see what you can do and then thank him personally if you have the chance and make the occasional thank you.
I think it's a good idea. Nothing wrong with thanking someone for the opportunity they gave you. I do not think you kissing at all.
Kissing up, flagrant and obvious. A verbal expression of appreciation would be nice to be hired.
