Start with a role and the right person
A recruiter, a hiring manager and a potential employee referrer need different messages. A recruiter can discuss an opening. A team member may explain the work. Someone who knows your background may be comfortable referring you. Find the relevant person before choosing your request.
Rolfox helps discover relevant people and prepare messages for a job. Check the person's current company and role before contacting them. A discovered profile does not establish that the person is hiring, knows you or has agreed to help.
Personalize the reason to reply
Name the role, give one truthful reason your experience fits and ask one answerable question. For an employee referral, offer the job link and a short summary so the person can decide whether they are comfortable recommending you.
Templates are editable. Avoid invented familiarity, exaggerated credentials and identical requests sent to everyone at a company. A concise message with relevant evidence is more useful to the recipient than a generic request to find you a job.
Hi Priya, I saw the backend engineer opening on your careers page. My recent work includes Node.js APIs and PostgreSQL, which the role mentions. Are you the right person to ask about the team's requirements? Happy to share the job link and my resume.
Replace the name, role and experience with verified details. This is a writing example, not a message sent by Rolfox.
How LinkedIn automation works in Rolfox
With Premium, you connect your own LinkedIn account and turn on outreach. Rolfox sends invitations, messages and follow-ups, spaced out and within daily limits. You can edit templates and pause outreach any time. Follow-ups stop when a person replies.
Rolfox is an independent product, not an official LinkedIn partner.
Track a request separately from an outcome
A sent message is not a referral. A reply is not an interview. Keep the stage of each conversation accurate and respond to what the person actually says. If someone declines or is not the right contact, respect that answer.
Rolfox brings follow-ups and replies into the job-search workflow so you can see what needs attention. It cannot guarantee a response, referral, interview or job offer, and it does not submit your job applications.
Common questions
- Does Rolfox sell referrals?
- No. Rolfox helps you prepare and manage referral requests. The employee decides whether to make a referral under their employer's process.
- Who sends the LinkedIn messages?
- Outreach sends from the LinkedIn account you connect, with Premium. Messages are spaced out and stay within daily limits.
- Is outreach only for referral requests?
- No. A conversation can ask about a role, establish whether a recruiter is the right contact or follow up on a relevant opportunity. Match the message to the person's role and the context.
