I may be in the minority, but I much prefer this method over being ghosted. It shows effort and a personal touch. It also gives me the opportunity to request feedback - resume, interview, or otherwise.

In one instance, I was able to provide interview feedback about the interviewer. The interviewer had a habit of asking the question and then adding a clarifying statement before I could answer; and in doing so, changed the context of the initial question. In doing so, this changed my answer or had me over-elaborating to try to satisfy all points. My personal takeaway post-interview was that I didn’t feel I’d provided direct and concise answers. - which matched the interviewers feedback.

This made me instantly feel better because I then knew (had I been offered and accepted the role) that we would have a communication issue as hiring manager and employee.
