OutreachHow to find a hiring manager’s email
Reaching the hiring manager directly is one of the most effective things you can do in a job search. Here is how to find their email.
Find the right person first
Identify who likely owns the role: the team lead or manager, not just a recruiter. Look at the company site, LinkedIn, and the job posting for names.
Work out their email pattern
- Find the company email format, for example first.last@company.com.
- Confirm a known employee email to learn the pattern.
- Apply the pattern to the hiring manager name.
- Verify the address before you send.
Or let a tool do it
