Subject: Struggling with Low Candidate Response Rates in the Netherlands – Any Advice?

Hi everyone!

I’m currently facing challenges in the Dutch job market, which is quite candidate-driven and has a limited pool of talent. Despite my ability to effectively source candidates using boolean strings and successfully engaging clients through email campaigns, I find it difficult to get responses on LinkedIn.

Often, candidates seem to align with the job requirements, but their profiles lack information about their career aspirations or interests. This makes it challenging to know how to initiate a conversation.

I’d love to hear how you all approach your outreach on LinkedIn to spark engagement.

Also, to my fellow recruiters in the Netherlands, I’m open to collaboration on a split-fee basis.

Thanks in advance for your insights!
