Managing conversations in NoRecruit

This guide details the specific tools and workflows available for managing your candidate conversations within the NoRecruit Inbox.

Updated this week


📖 Viewing & History

Every conversation in your inbox provides full context so you never walk into a chat cold.

  • Candidate Context: View the prospect's profile, the LinkedIn account you are using to message them, and the specific campaign they belong to.

  • Full Thread: See every outgoing automated message and incoming candidate reply with precise timestamps.

  • Search: Use the search bar to filter by candidate name or keywords within the message text.


✍️ Composing Replies

You have three ways to respond to a candidate:

  1. Manual Composition: Type directly into the input field for a standard reply.

  2. Templates: Click the "Templates" button to insert pre-written, high-performing messages.

  3. Image Attachments: Use the attachment icon to send screenshots or company flyers to provide more value.


🤖 AI-Generated "Pending" Replies

If your campaign uses AI, the system will often draft a response to incoming messages. These appear in the Pending Replies section.

  • Review & Edit: You can click "Edit" on any AI draft to tweak the personalization or tone.

  • Send or Delete: Once you are satisfied, click "Send Now." If the AI misinterprets the candidate, simply click "Delete" and write your own response.

  • Safety First: Pending replies are never sent automatically from the Inbox; they always require your final "okay."


🛠️ Inbox Filters & Organization

Use filters to keep your workspace clean and prioritize high-value leads.

Filter

Purpose

Unread

Focuses only on candidates waiting for a response.

Recent

Sorts by the most recent activity (incoming or outgoing).

Campaign

Isolates conversations for a specific role (e.g., "Python Dev").

Account

Filters messages to a specific LinkedIn profile you manage.


⚠️ Handling Edge Cases

  • Declined InMails: If a candidate declines an InMail, LinkedIn will block further messaging. The Inbox will display a notification, and the composer will be disabled.

  • Disconnected Accounts: If your LinkedIn session expires, a "Disconnected" badge will appear. You must re-authenticate in Settings to resume messaging.

  • Scheduled Messages: You can view and edit messages that are queued by your automation before they go out. Look for the "Scheduled for..." indicator in the thread.


💡 Best Practices

  • The 24-Hour Rule: Prompt responses significantly increase your chance of a successful hire. Check your "Unread" filter at least once per day.

  • Tone Matching: If a candidate is casual, feel free to mirror that. If they are formal, use a template that matches their professional tone.

  • Batch Processing: Use the Campaign Filter to respond to all candidates for one role at a time—this keeps your mind on the specific job requirements.
