Recruiter InMail on LinkedIn: respond or ignore? Decision tree

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.
