Hi all, I've been dealing with candidates going completely silent after the first outreach message and I know a lot of you have run into this too. Spent some time working through it last week, and here's what actually moved the needle for me: 1. Send the first message with a specific reason you're reaching out, not a generic template. 2. Follow up on day 3 with a different angle, not just "just checking in". 3. Use a short video or voice note for the second touch, response rates jump noticeably. Happy to clarify anything, hope this helps 🙏
