Recruiter InMail on LinkedIn: respond or ignore? Decision tree
2026-06-12 · 4 min read
Reddit hates spam InMail—but **good InMail** matches your public target role.
**Respond when** Role fits, company legit, JD attached, comp range reasonable.
**Ignore when** Generic blast, vague "hot role," sketchy agency patterns.
Reply with tailored resume link/PDF mapped to their JD—shows seriousness fast.
