Any advice for reaching out to someone on LinkedIn about a job? It’s hard to know who exactly is in charge of hiring for a specific role so I try to directly message anyone in HR or Talent Acquisition at the company I am applying to, not sure if there is anything else I should be doing. Thanks in advance!

Just message any and everyone you can. Someone will respond and help. Use this app too

I’m more so asking for specifics on how to reach out. For example, what should I say to someone who works at the company I applied to but isn’t in a hiring role and is just an employee?

Hi Fishes,

I applied to one of the roles and after initial screening I happened to see in the website that there are no suitable openings for my profile.

I heard that the cool off period is six months. Does that apply to my situation because I didn't attend any interview.

Can I use referals to apply before 6 months? Or should I wait for 6 more months?

Thanks for your help.

I was told to apply to a hospital job by someone interested in interviewing me. The recruiter reached out. Asked for my availability but then didn’t respond when I gave her my availability. I followed up. We scheduled a phone call (she said she’d call) and then she didn’t call! At this point, I’m thinking they’re totally disorganized. Is this common practice? I’ve never dealt with a recruiter so I don’t know.

Does anyone have experience interviewing with Deloitte Internal Services? I had my final interview a week and a half ago, and received positive feedback throughout.

The role still shows as “Interviews in Process.” We did discuss potential start dates, but no salary. Any experience with receiving offers for an internal services role? Is this common?

Do I bring in my recruiter or reach out through connections? Is using a recruiter beneficial to me, or am I better off on my own? How does their fee play in to what I could get as a package?
