How to deal with recruiters on LinkdIn?

What I really like is working in a large organization, which has a complete "recruitment team" of three or four people! The team even has a page on LinkedIn. However, I don't want to contact them through LinkedIn, because in that case, my colleagues will say that I am looking for a job. ) How can I get in touch with the recruiter? Since all the positions are posted online, I don't know which job hunting strategy these people are suitable for on LinkedIn, but I'd like to know. I have no clue about the rules of participation in this situation. Do you have any suggestions?

first, there is a question. How much attention do you pay to people who contact through LinkedIn? I'm asking because I just sent a request to my cousin Jenny through LinkedIn. She has a company called "Show Boldly". Assuming that she accepts my request (she will probably do so because, you know, I am terrible and everything else), then this new link will appear in this week's update of my editor LinkedIn. I guess his first thought might be, "Oh, no! Suzanne is in contact with Jenny Peterson now. Click on her link and I know Jenny is teaching acting! I bet Suzanne wants to leave Fortune Watch and become an actress! I want to fire her now! Or maybe recommend her to participate in the next CBS sitcom! "

no, if he thinks about it seriously, he might think like this: "Well, Jenny Peterson. I went to school with a girl named Jenny Peterson. I wonder if they are the same person? " Because, to be honest, even your boss doesn't really care much about you. So my point is, if you want to contact your colleagues through LinkedIn, just do it. Because everyone else in your network knows that this recruiter is your college roommate, former company partner, next-door neighbor or cousin.

What really makes you notice that you are looking for a job are the following moments: when you suddenly update your experience, when you ask for a letter of recommendation from everyone you have never met, when you suddenly add a lot of new friends. It was a self-evident moment.

However, if you want to avoid the recruiter on your LinkedIn page (or if the contact person has no contact with Jane Doe (the assumed name for an unnamed female client in the lawsuit), the recruiter or the recruitment department of ACME company), you can send a private letter through LinkedIn, mentioning that you are searching for a job, and the news is not open to the public. The recruiter understands that you don't want your current boss to know that you are looking for a new job. This is part of their job responsibilities.

here are some things you can do: avoid recruiters completely. Oh, that's terrible! If I say that, my friends who are engaged in recruitment will never forgive me. They won't, because the recruiters I personally know are excellent and won't do stupid things to candidates. However, I have seen too many things and know that the rules set by recruiters are arbitrary and will exclude candidates who can't understand their ideas, no matter how excellent and qualified the candidates are.

However, if you can interview the hiring manager, you will have a better chance. It will be more effective if you can get the contact information and network in your way. Why? Because although hiring managers are not very good at explaining clearly to recruiters what they really need, they often recognize it, even if you don't fully meet all the requirements listed in the recruitment position. Your resume will make a hiring manager think, "Oh, wow, it would be great if one of the employees knew how to do joint analysis! Why didn't I think of that? " But because the manager didn't tell the recruiter, he needs someone to do the analysis. Even if you have this skill, it won't attract the attention of the recruiter.

when you adjust your resume to fit the job description, make the keywords in your resume consistent with those in the job description. If the position requires "joint analysis" and you can do it, but your resume says "complex advanced statistical model", chances are that no one will pay attention to you. Instead, you should write "advanced statistical models include joint analysis, logistic regression, and so on" like this. If you have the skills listed in the job requirements, make sure that the computer can recognize them. Those computers are very literal.

don't be afraid to deal with recruiters, and don't be afraid to contact them through LinkedIn. That's why they are there.
