My favorite quote from the article "I tried, and failed, to speak with Valley-based recruiters, who seem to be considerably less eager to return emails than to send them."
- ChuckFrank 13y agoI'm constantly amazed at how hierarchical email return etiquette is. I constantly see people only returning emails to people that they see as more powerful than them. If fact, I've found that it's the engineers that are best at returning emails, and everyone else that is terrible at it. Even when they've requested your participation in the conversation. I have an email triage system. Priority emails I respond to immediately, important emails within the day, and queries within the week. In that way I respond to all my emails. With others, it's just like there's a giant email black hole that my emails fall into - never to be heard from again.
