Why are my cold emails forwarded
Hey got a quick question.
My mailtracker says my emails are being opened anywhere from 3, 4, sometimes 6-7 times. Do bankers forward it to recruiters? others who are free to talk? or are you guys just reading it 5 times over because you love my writing skills?
Where do my emails ultimately end up and is it kept track of? Will it ever help me besides just getting potential contacts? Thanks.
Sometimes they are embarrassingly bad and worth showing to colleagues. Hope that’s not the case here
Definitely a thing. I remember we were running a lateral process a couple years ago and started getting a bunch of resumes. Some overzealous analyst sent us a pitch deck on why we should hire them. You can bet your ass that the presentation was sent to basically everyone on the floor and everyone had a good laugh. Note to future lateral candidates, it is possible to try too hard for a job.
if i forward a networking email it’s either because a) i think someone else should talk to them / might know them or b) the kid said something stupid/had bad typos/ is being aggressive about following up and I’m making a joke to my friends
Agreed
I forward all cold emails I receive to our groups’ recruiting team if email references an internship / lateral move or has resume attached. I’m sure they forward to HR when appropriate.
Of course the astonishingly bad ones get forwarded around as well.
Don't worry about it. The way that your email tracker is coded is an embedded file in the email, and every time it loads, it assumes that the email is being read. So if Outlook or whatever email service the receiver is using loads the email / refreshes, it'll trigger a notification. I've used email tracking CRMs where if the email gets duplicated or forwarded, I'd get quadruple the notifications in the 10 to 30 range. Just depends on how it's coded.
Was this with the hubspot email extension? Asking bc I had an email read 25 times recently per my email tracker and I'm a little worried lol
Yep HubSpot is one of the CRM/trackers I use; it tends to be a little glitchy. You can relax lol.
