My Best Recruiting Email Template

I get this question a lot. “Tell me the secret,” they say. As if trying to get someone’s attention with a recruiting email template is about magic. It’s not, by the way.

Template isn’t a bad word.

As long as it’s just a framework, not a copy and paste.

  3. The things you should NEVER do
  4. And more…
