I have given some indirect indication (updating linkedin, checking out company pages/AE's in positions at companies I would be interested in, etc) that I might be open to new positions which I am. I had a sales recruiter add me on linkedin and when I looked at their page theu're hiring for a role in my area. They haven't done anything else and I don't think I'm quite qualified yet it seems to specific to be an accident. How should I take this?
