Newly promoted senior here, ever since I updated my LinkedIn I’ve been getting a lot of messages from recruiters, I’m not looking to exit my current role. Do I just ignore these messages or should I be responding in any way?

You should really be testing the market, especially the way things currently stand, even if you don't expect to leave - you don't know what's out there ... It's foolish to not take a look.

Maybe there are some contractual issues that prevent me from leaving, or maybe I like the people I work with and like what I do

like

I ignore them.

like

If irrelevant or "inmail" I ignore. If the opportunity would be attractive at a different time when I would be looking, I'll politely respond that I'm not open to new opportunities at this time. Short and sweet.

like

Ignore. If there’s someone I actually know, I say a quick thanks but no thanks.

I ignore if they’re wildly irrelevant, and use the no thanks message template for anything that looks up my alley but just not right now

If they aren’t relevant, I reply and ask them “why do you think this is a good fit for me?”
