Additional Posts in Ask A Recruiter - Advertising
Ok be honest, candidates. I really love this set of questions, I’ve been considering shifting my current interview style to these questions - I think they really give you an idea of who this person would be within the work setting. But the questions almost feel too deep for a recruiter to ask. What would you think if a recruiter took a different path and asked these questions instead of the usual ones?

Email is probably more direct
Yes, but emails get lost and fall through the cracks pretty often. Many recruiters are on LinkedIn a good amount of time during the day. Curious to see what they will say though.
I think it does show you’re making an effort to connect which is good. It’s not frowned upon but email is likely going to get a response (for me at least). Some recruiters get so many LinkedIn messages that can easily get lost in the shuffle. But, if your message hits and the right time when a recruiter is searching on LinkedIn, it can be a good way to remind them of you. Always good to be connected on LinkedIn no matter what as an addition to email.
