Low candidate reply rate in the Netherlands (need help)

Struggling with Low Response Rates from Candidates in the Netherlands

Hi everyone! I’m currently facing challenges in the Netherlands’ candidate-driven market, where there is a noticeable scarcity of talent. I find it difficult to elicit responses from potential candidates on LinkedIn. While I’m proficient in sourcing and using Boolean strings, and have successfully landed clients through email campaigns, engaging candidates has proven to be a struggle.

When reviewing profiles, I often see that candidates fit the job description, but I can’t find information about their aspirations or motivations, making it tough to initiate meaningful conversations.

I’m curious: How do you typically start your LinkedIn conversations?

P.S. If any recruiters in the Netherlands are interested, I’m open to discussing a split-fee commission arrangement.

What are the best ways to scrape leads?

Looking for effective strategies to scrape leads? I’ve seen several inquiries in this group regarding the best methods, so I wanted to share one approach I’ve found useful:

  1. Begin by creating a list using LinkedIn Sales Navigator, then export that list to PhantomBuster.

  2. Next, utilize Anymailfinder to gather the email addresses, resulting in a comprehensive list of leads.

  3. Finally, consider employing a third-party automation tool to organize all the personal information. You can also leverage AI to craft customized opening lines for each lead, ensuring you have a personalized touch ready for your cold calls or emails. This has truly transformed my outreach efforts!
