Thank you emails and letters are old school ways of show appreciation for the chance for a job. IMO this is a bit dated but totally fine especially if the job is a customer facing one where their manners actually matter.

Thank you emails are good. The real question is, should you space it out. Like a day or two after the interview? Because sending one right after does zero IMO. You need to keep yourself on their minds and as we all do....we forget.

So keep yourself in their minds and give it a day or two after the interview

I don't want a follow-up email. Either you were selected for a second round, or you were not.

Pestering me about it isn't going to help.

Sorry, don't agree with this one. A simple "thank you" has been good job seeking advice for a long time. I've specifically gotten a job because I sent in a written thank you. Though that's more practical for local businesses rather than remote jobs that I seek these days.
