How to Respond to a Recruiter Who Contacts You Out of the Blue

By Peter Newfield | February 6, 2020 |

Have you ever been stumped by how to respond to a recruiter who pings you without warning? Have you ever suddenly wanted something you never knew you wanted before? Maybe you saw a commercial for a product you can’t live without. Or your friend gets something and now you have to have it too. This…

Greg,
First of all thank you very much for job well done. As per your instruction I reviewed the documents and made very few changes. … Thank you again for identifying my expertise and portrait me correctly. A great job!!!

Hi Patricia,
Attached is the second draft of my resume. You did an awesome job! Wow, I could not have done this at all. It looks great! I have made the changes you requested. Please review and let me know what you think. I look forward to hearing from you again, soon. Thank you!

Good Morning
All looks very good. Thank you for such a nice job. I guess it makes a great deal of sense to work with professionals. Mr. Newfield had discussed with me some of your resources as it relates to a mailing of my resume to executive firms, head hunters etc once my resume is complete. As I have always believed most of the good jobs are never advertised. Can you shed some light on this and let me know what you think.

Rita, I want to thank you for the wonderful and impressive job on my resume. Best Regards,
Randy S.

Dear Darlene,
Thank you for sending these to me. I imagine it’s quite common that people who receive the cover letter and resume don’t recognize themselves on paper. They look very professional, of course. Kind regards,
Anna-Lisa S.

Dan:
Great job on both the resume & the cover letter. I’m very pleased with your work. Thanks very much. Best Regards,

Wendy,
You are the best! This is perfection! I am so blessed to have someone as experienced and talented as you to help me. Thank you,

Patricia.
These are very well done and much appreciated. Just one final question on the linked-in bio. Will the title make a difference when people do a global search (i.e. should I list Managing Director or Principal, Healthcare or a more specific title that pertains to my last job/position. Advantages/disadvantages? I will let you know when my linked-in profile is updated. I think Peter wanted a recommendation on linked-in re: your work and he was going to link me in to his network as well. Outstanding work. I will gladly recommend you to others.
Regards,
Rob B.

Wendy,
Great….no changes necessary. FYI….I have an interview on Friday for a CEO position….they are the only people outside you and me who has seen the resume…apparently they liked it….. Regards,
Steve G.

Sherri,
You did an excellent job writing my resume and now it’s due for an update. I had a great year and I want to strike while the coals are hot. Please send the forms I need to complete for you to add my newest position. Thanks, I forward to receiving your usual excellent product.
