Write for the person receiving your message
Before writing, decide whether you are asking a recruiter about an opening, an employee about a referral or an existing contact for a status update. Each request needs different context. Our guides include adaptable examples and explain what to verify before sending.
The examples use fictional people and situations. Replace the details with your own experience, check the live job listing and respect a person's decision not to engage. No template can guarantee a reply.
Connect the message to the rest of your search
A clear message starts with a relevant opportunity. Review the requirements, prepare a truthful resume and keep track of whether you have applied. That context helps you make a specific request and avoid repeating work.
