Way #1, you get wild emails like this one.
The first time I lateraled, my initial recruiter ghosted me after talking me into doing an interview while I had Covid (which I bombed). She recently reached out to touch base to see if I was interested in exploring options.

Well, are you 😌
Just kidding
The ones where they frame it like you dropped the ball on responding to something to get your attention are criminal.

I used to practice myself, and I would absolutely never send something like this. Thank you for the clarity and honesty
I don't think I've had any very interesting ones, most of them are just for jobs that are in completely unrelated industries that have nothing to do with me and waste my time. I guess I would say that that's pretty wild 😆

This can be frustrating, for sure
Not an email but had one call me on my
work phone in the middle
of a work day. Took me by surprise at the boldness.
Lucky to not be an associate when there were only phones
I’m getting ones basically asking me to do their job with referrals. Same person 4 days apart…
They are literally asking for you to reply, asking for references it’s just a workaround if they can’t fully reach out to people at that firm/group etc.
