Unless someone is familiar with the exact recruiter you're coming into contact with here,or has a particularly accurate crystal ball, nobody can give you any indication of what will happen in your interaction with this recruiter, at least not in any way that is backed up. | |
| May 30, 2018 at 9:11 | comment | added | motosubatsu♦ | @ChrisCirefice I've done a quick edit to your question to try and address any "off-topic" concerns, hopefully I haven't substantially altered your intent. If so feel free to revert or try an edit of your own. | |

| May 24, 2018 at 18:28 | comment | added | Chris Cirefice | @SaggingRufus Maybe you can do template/form messages in LinkedIn, I don't know, I've never been on the recruiter's end of the stick. In any case, template messages or copy/pasting without bothering to fill in a name seems like a red flag to me, and probably means something to people who have more experience in dealing with recruiters than I do. | |

| May 24, 2018 at 17:25 | comment | added | Chris Cirefice | @IDrinkandIKnowThings this was through LinkedIn, and absolutely first impressions matter and you can learn a lot about another person from this sort of interaction, so I really don’t understand your comment. | |
| May 24, 2018 at 17:19 | comment | added | IDrinkandIKnowThings | You know very well that you can not base an entire expectation set off of a single interaction over email. All it shows is Outlook is more tricky than the recruiter was capable of sending form letters to his candidates. | |
| May 24, 2018 at 15:58 | comment | added | SaggingRufus | just respond with "Hello recuiter. I would love a job as <<position you have>> please contact me at <<contact info>> so we can discuss further <<signature>>" see what happens | |
| May 24, 2018 at 15:51 | comment | added | Chris Cirefice | Annnddd... @closevoters, how is this off-topic as per the Help Center? At least write a comment so I can modify/improve the question. | |

| May 24, 2018 at 15:41 | comment | added | Chris Cirefice | @DarkCygnus Just rephrased it, now it's not opinion-based. "What can I expect" might be more answerable than "should I yes/no". Let me know if I can improve it further. | |
| May 24, 2018 at 15:40 | comment | added | Jim Horn | Upvoted simply to knock out the downvote, this is a legitimate question, and as with anything recuriting will have a lot of soft skills and opinion. | |

Rephrase from "should I" to "what can I expect"

| May 24, 2018 at 15:33 | comment | added | DarkCygnus♦ | Didn't DV, but you are asking a "should I.." question, which happens to be asking for a choice. Also, truly answering what you might expect might be too of a guess to my taste. Perhaps you can rephrase your question? | |
| May 24, 2018 at 15:30 | comment | added | Chris Cirefice | @downvoter(s) how can I improve the question? | |
