Good morning, When following up in the weeks ahead after a panel interview, do I call / e-mail all the panelists (there are three), rotate among them, or what? I couldn't find advice on this specifically in the Interviewing Series. So far, what I've done is mailed out hand-written thank you cards the afternoon after I interviewed and, after a week, I called all three of them. Thanks, BJ

BJ - I think your approach is right. Treat 'em all equally and on the same schedule, until you have reason to do something different (like, one of them tells you they're not the decision-maker).-Hugh

It's usually a good idea to ask who you would be reporting to and who the decision makers for the hiring are during the interview process. Heck, just figuring out why each person is interviewing you (peer, manager, manager's manager, internal client, subordinate...?) is vital to knowing how to answer the questions they give you.
