Recruiter outreach FAQ: personalization, channels, and reply rates

Personalization

Personalization means referencing a real detail from the candidate's background and a specific role-fit reason. It is the main difference between a message that gets read and one that gets ignored.

Channels

LinkedIn and email both work; the better channel is where the candidate is active. Recruiterly generates both variants from the same profile and role so you can choose.

Reply rates

No tool — including Recruiterly — can promise a reply rate. Rates depend on fit, relevance, timing, and follow-up. Personalization tends to help relevance, which is the part you can control.

Cost

Recruiterly has a free tier (5 messages/month) and a Pro plan at $19/month for unlimited drafts and saved history. You can start free and upgrade as volume grows.

Responsible use

Keep outreach targeted, honest, and within LinkedIn and email platform terms of service. Review every draft before sending.
