Seems a little presumptuous to assume that the decline in outreach was personal and not associated with the heavy decline in companies hiring during uncertain times.
- marcinzm 6y agoYeah, my linkedin recruiter messages dropped significantly especially for management roles and I changed nothing. I'd say the drop began 1-2 months after covid started and only began recovering now. Seems to lineup with when he did his test.
- pmiller2 6y ago> I was still getting tons of messages after covid and shelter in place started. My snapshot is from 2 months ago, not 4 months ago. Covid definitely caused some drop-off but not much tbh, I still got a ton of recruiters who are playing the long game. https://twitter.com/yipe/status/1278504924284772352 https://twitter.com/yipe/status/1278504924284772352
- MattGaiser 6y agoCovid lockdowns started 4 months ago. Companies took longer to react. Google only rescinded contractor offers end of May. My organization was hiring right through April. Things take time to propagate.
- pmiller2 6y agoI'm not sure whether I agree or disagree. I was just providing extra context from the Twitter poster, because Twitter is not good for context.
- MattGaiser 6y agoFair.
