👋 Hi, Product Hunt! I'm Anvisha, cofounder at @Doverhq and one of the creators of the Great Recruiting Emails E-booklet. Why did we make this? We all know how it feels to receive spammy, poorly worded, or unpersonalized emails feel — not great. And, if we're lucky, we know what it feels like to receive one where you feel seen, bought into a company's mission and values, and excited about the role's potential! At Dover, we're helping our customers find and engage the best people for their team. After working with 150+ companies, we've honed in on what sets great outreach apart from the bad. It's ultimately about being thoughtful about your whole candidate experience, which includes making your first touch point a good one. At Dover, we received a ton of great examples from candidates who were contacted by companies like Robinhood, Facebook, and Stripe. 🏆 We put them all into a booklet for hiring managers and recruiters to reference when they need help finding the right words to say.

Curious to hear: - For those regularly writing recruiting emails -- what do you make sure to include? - For those receiving them -- what makes you want to reply?

@sarah_goomar As someone who receives them, Talk to me like you talk to a friend. To me, in this context, good copy is this email I received for a podcast interview - "Hi, I found you on [xyz] site. This is what we we do. Are you interested?"

Nice, you should totally do webinars for recruiters and head hunters. Industry needs more best practices in this field! @anvishapai

I thought this was another April's Fool Joke, but no, these guys are for real.

This always seems the least personal (from Color): _________ Hi ▬▬▬ , I hope you're staying safe and healthy during these unprecedented times. __________ Do you really? I'm not. My dog died, my best friend died of Covid and how long does it take for something to become precedented. If I send my resume can you reply with a good therapist? Please contact me, I'm so lonely.
