A MORE FOCUSED SEARCH ROUTE
Career introductions, explained
A career introduction gives a relevant hiring decision-maker concise context about a professional who has authorised that conversation. It can complement job boards and formal applications, but it cannot create a vacancy or guarantee a response.
What an introduction should contain
A responsible introduction explains the target role or problem, the strongest relevant evidence and why the recipient may reasonably care. It should be specific, short and honest about the relationship between the sender and candidate.
The candidate should know what information may be shared and retain the ability to pause future activity. Optional sensitive answers should not be included.
When the approach may help
Introductions may add context for senior, specialist or cross-functional moves where job titles alone obscure transferable value. They can also support exploratory conversations before a formal role exists.
They remain uncertain. A relevant person may have no vacancy, no budget or no interest. A formal application may still be required even after a conversation.
How Recrewd uses them
Recrewd begins with one career profile and the CV version you select for a direction. When a relevant opportunity is available and sharing is enabled, the service uses that material to support an introduction within your stated role and location preferences.
Recrewd focuses on fit and permission rather than a public vacancy feed or mass applications. Free, Premium and Concierge members can build a profile for relevant consideration.
Protect your time and reputation
Judge an introduction by relevance and accuracy, not the number sent. Avoid mass unsolicited outreach, invented referrals and generic messages. Keep a record of what was shared, with whom and why.
Use job boards and employer career sites alongside networking. Different fields and seniority levels respond to different search routes, so track your own qualified conversations rather than follow a universal application formula.
