Hello Jason,

It's impressive to see you actively engaging in networking and participating in informational interviews! Your initiative is sure to benefit you greatly! I would suggest sending a brief email or a LinkedIn message. Keep it concise and straightforward, expressing your gratitude for their time and the enjoyable conversation. Highlight a specific piece of advice or information they shared that could be beneficial in your job hunt or future career. If there was a particular topic or anecdote from your discussion that was enjoyable or noteworthy, mentioning it will add a personal touch to your message.

Once you connect with them on LinkedIn, they will be part of your professional network. This way, you've already laid the groundwork for any future communication needs that you may have for your network as you are looking for a job.

Best of luck!
