Marketing Candidates Email Template

 

Use this email template to contact marketers for an open position in your company. This template saves you time and is more likely to get a positive response. Remember to customize this email template to align with your company culture and voice.

 

Send qualified marketing candidates a recruiting email  to let them know about your job opening. Tell your potential candidates how you found them and what about them made you reach out. Personalize your recruiting emails to increase response rates.

For example:

  • Note if you met at a conference/event and highlight what stood out to you about the interaction.
  • Network with them on social platforms, including Facebook groups, Slack and Twitter. Mention any previously communicated, so they’re more likely to respond to your recruiting email.
  • Mention one to two projects they were involved in that impressed you.
  • Look for online portfolios and compliment potential candidates on works that resemble what you (want to) do.

For European candidates, please refer to guidance on using social media for recruiting and collecting candidate information as per the General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR.Candidates need to know the big benefits of working for your company. Name one or two benefits that you offer to employees and briefly describe some challenging tasks related to the position (e.g. launching a new product.)Provide relevant information (your name, your company and contact details) and a clear call to action. And if this is an EU candidate, make sure to include a link to your privacy notice as the GDPR requires.
