| Aug 5, 2015 at 3:33 | comment | added | DJClayworth | The guy is a cold-calling email recruiter. They are not picky. His thoughts on getting a reply from you are never going to be "Hmm, a weak response. I might not follow up with him" they are going to be "Whoopee! Someone replied to me! Where's my keyboard?". | |

| Aug 5, 2015 at 2:08 | comment | added | Jane S | It's hard to understand the context without the rest of the email (please don't share that here), but if the conversation was about a job then it's not unreasonable to ask what the next steps entail. I think you're possibly overthinking the "weak response" bit :) | |
