LinkedIn has become a resourceful tool for recruiting talent, it makes us wonder how recruiters survived before it came along in the mid-2000’s. The ease in which you can put in what you are looking for and receive a list of individuals that might be a fit for your position… sounds like a dream! As most people within HR and Recruiting have a lot on their plate, it’s an easy stress-free way to reach out to people.So, you send InMails or connection requests. Then you wait… and wait… and wait… to see who, if anyone responds.
A few things you may think about while you wait.
What am I going to do if no one responds to my InMail? Where did those messages go? Did they go to a personal email account that is not checked? Did the person even get an alert they have a message?
Think about the last time you did this, how many InMails did you send and how many responses did you get? Would you say your return is less than 10%? What about the other 90%, how do you get to them? Three little words….. CALL THEM DIRECTLY!
