Is anyone doing a deep dive into their LinkedIn connections, reaching out to a dozen or more peeps regarding a posted role, freelance opps, etc and getting zero response?

Maybe that’s your problem. If you’re messaging that many people, you’re spamming. The majority of those people have nothing to do with hiring for the role you’re inquiring about.

I work in talent acquisition, but am not a creative recruiter and if you took the time to look at my profile, that would be obvious. Yet I average 100+ emails / LinkedIn cold messages a week from creatives. I used to respond to all messages, but that’s no longer sustainable. If people really want a response, my advice is to be thoughtful in your approach and do your research before reaching out to anyone to improve your chances.

We unfortunately can’t acquire all talent.

I got my job by doing informationals with dept leads. They’re the real influencers and generally don’t get quite as spammed as recruiters. IMO people are less receptive when it feels like you’re only reaching out bc you want something - yet they don’t know you yet. Need to become top of mind and get them to take a liking to you first.
