Former Google executive Jenny Wood advises jobseekers to leave a voice note in their recruiter's LinkedIn inbox at least 24 hours prior to an interview. This tactic can make candidates more memorable. Career expert Amanda Augustine backs this up, illustrating the importance of timing—with a connection request acceptance indicating when it’s appropriate to send a message. Messages should be brief and personal, ideally between 30-45 seconds long. Augustine also recommends using voice notes as follow-ups to interviews to provide a more genuine thank-you to interviewers, enhancing engagement.
Voice notes in LinkedIn inboxes stand out, and sending one can distinguish you before an interview. Just ensure it's genuine and well-timed.
Timing is essential; if your connection request is accepted moments before the interview, it’s best to hold off on sending a voice memo.
A brief voice memo, 30-45 seconds long, can introduce yourself and indicate your eagerness about the interview, but only if sent in a timely manner.
Using voice notes after the interview can add a personal touch to your thank-you note, making it more memorable for the interviewer.
