How to send emails to sourced developers?

Passive candidates are everywhere, and not having a strategy on how to reach them can cost you a lot of great talent!

Don’t get disappointed with a low open and response rates, but always try to follow the best practices for writing cold emails. To increase your emails open and response rates, make sure that you personalize both the subject line and the body of the email.

The body of the email should always contain a brief information about the company and some more detail about the open position. Tell the candidate about your Employee Value Propositions, and stories about why your employees love working for you. Don’t forget to include a well-written job description.
