Most refer to specific aspects of my experience, some specifically referencing my current role (ie. they've read my LI, which also clearly shows my grad date)... some are spray and pray. Probably 80% of things that come my way are applicable to what I do both in skillset and title (Lead/principal/staff/director roles).
Does it matter? If there is some way that recruiters are filtering based on age, my age is clearly discernable.
- nitrogen 5y agoAt least some of these are auto-filled templates with scraped data -- I got one where "I was really impressed by your experience at ." -- yes, just a space and a period. Probably slightly modified from the defaults provided by a hiring CRM platform. You can tell the ones that really are different, because they mention something a scraper or AI wouldn't figure out.
