95. When a Recruiter Wants To Discuss A Job Opportunity with You

Dec 15, 2023

Ever had a recruiter slide into your DM's, asking you to hop on the phone with them to discuss a potential job opportunity?

It's normal to be skeptical of these messages but let me tell you...these DM messages lead to REAL job opportunities.

Ask me how I know! One of my 2023 job offers came directly from a LinkedIn message from a recruiter! I didn't even know about the job until the recruiter reached out to me. I don't want you to miss out on these "hidden market" job opportunities, so on this episode I cover everything you need to know when a recruiter reaches out to you: 

On this episode, you'll learn:

• How to handle these initial conversations with recruiters, so that you don't fall for any scams but also not miss out on any real job opportunities
• The difference between in-house recruiters, recruiters from staffing agencies
• Why they often hide critical details from you in the initial message
• The types of questions you must ask during the initial conversation
• How to discuss desired salary and everything you need to prepare to succeed in this initial chat
