So true.
My take, in my role as VP engineering at Radius, I have hand-written every recruiting email I've ever sent. No template. I personalize it to you.
A lot of people discard it as spam, or don't accept the in-mail, or whatever. I understand, but at least on the off chance they read it, I know I tried my best and showed legit interest.
Sad that recruiters don't take the time to do such a thing, but it's often a pure numbers game for them. They get paid based on this stuff, just like sales people, and they just crunch through.
- mh- 13y agofor what it's worth- I always try to reply to hand-written emails that demonstrate the sender took time to read about me, even though I'm only responding to simply say thanks for reaching out. on the flipside, I instantly trash anything that looks template-ish or shotgun-approach.
