I’ve been racking my brains for months on how to really move the needle for job seekers who want to be taken seriously.
And recently, I came across an email had I sent to the cofounder of Circle.so, which got a great response and earned me time on the phone with him. (Listen to hear what the email said, or go here)
Andy’s not the only one — I got the same results for almost every email I sent.
In my experience it converts nearly 100% of the time, even if they were already in the final stages of interviewing other candidates, like in this case.
It just. Makes people. Want to know you. 😀
As some of you know, I’m really trying to productize & gamify this formula to give us all a better way to form strong career connections. The first version is live at inspiring.careers — every application you submit on the website turns into an email similar to this one!
But, I think now I need to turn applications into Notion pages instead, to simplify the email. It’s really important that the email body itself is very simple. (And, I’m guessing, the video thumbnail image I included probably helped!)
So if you’re considering your next career move right now, and want to build your network, drop an application at inspiring.careers/companies and I’ll be in touch very soon.
Have a great week! 👋
