I agree that thank notes are important and that’s what we told our kids. They reached out to HR if they didn’t have interviewer full names and weren’t able to find them on the company’s website or by other means. I also think email no later than the next day is the way to go, not snail mail. Two negatives about US mail: by the time it’s delivered, it will likely be too late to make a difference - the decision will already have been made. Handwritten notes also seem quaint and old fashioned - great for thanking Grandma Joan for the birthday gift but not the impression you want to leave for a fast paced business environment.
