I wish linkedin would allow you to add this stuff to your profile. Ideally the search/spam feature of linkedin that recruiters use, would have to pass your filter before getting sent to you. This way if you get notified at least it passed your filter and you would be OK with it.
That would be a feature I would pay for.
- jwmoz 14y agoA link to a post like yours would be the perfect response for emails such as: "Hi James Please contact me asap or I can call you ?? I'd like to discuss a PHP contract role your perfect for Speak soon"
- KenCochrane 14y agoYeah, I'm hoping it will save me some time. Now I can just send them this link each time I get a message, and if they bother following the link, doing as I say, and writing back then I know they are at least serious and not just fishing.
- amorphid 14y agoOP, why bother replying to posts where the recruiter clearly didn't read your profile at all? It's a nice gesture, but the sender is creating work for you by being lazy and off target. An offline version might be responding to junk mail with a note about what you'd really like to buy. Are you replying on the off chance the spammer is sitting on a cushy job order they haven't mentioned?
- alttab 14y agoI mark-as-read without reading unless I'm actively looking. So why do you open them?
- ianstallings 14y agoI put it right in my summary if I'm getting nagged a lot. Just a notice saying for recruiters to not contact me that way our time is not wasted.
- johncosta 14y agoAdding a criteria filter is also a feature I'd pay for. Great Idea.
