Ask HN: Do recruiters follow up emails ever work?

7 points by dudul 11y ago

If you are a recruiter, do you ever get a response to a follow up after the original email was ignored? If you are a recrutee: do you ever reply to a follow up after ignoring the first cold email?

  Is that the email I should send my bank account and routing number to?

Even if I'm not looking for a new position, I reply to offers which really match my profile. If I don't reply on the first mail, I'll also definitely ignore the follow-ups.

Depends on timing. You can ignore an email a few couple times but then that special day arrives and you get that same email again but something is different in your situation so you actually respond this time.

I receive about 2 emails/week from recruiters. I don't answer. Sometimes I get 3 emails from the same recruiter. Amazon, Microsoft, startups, etc. They all use the same boring pattern where they only customize the first line. "I know you might be busy at xyz, but..." "You might be receiving these kind of emails everyday, but..." etc.

This Ask HN just kicked me to write up something that I've been wanting to test for a while [1]. Basically, I write back a canned response[2] and forget about it. If they write back then we move forward. [1] - https://medium.com/@unmgmt/my-simple-reply-to-unsolicited-recruiter-emails-3085f72317e3 https://medium.com/@unmgmt/my-simple-reply-to-unsolicited-re...
