Source passive candidates for your open roles
The best candidates for a role are usually passive: already employed, not on any job board, and buried under recruiter InMail they have stopped reading. Sourcing them means matching the exact skills, seniority, and location you need, then reaching a real inbox instead of a LinkedIn message that sits unread. Describe your ideal candidate in plain English, browse real masked profiles for free, then reveal the people who fit and look up a verified work email so your outreach actually lands.
Questions
How do I source passive candidates who are not actively job hunting?
Describe the ideal candidate (skills, seniority, industry, location) the way you would in a hiring brief, and the search returns real masked profiles from a global B2B professional database, including people who are employed and not on any job board. Browsing previews is free. Spend 1 credit to reveal someone and 1 more (refunded if none is found) to look up their verified work email, so you reach them directly rather than through an InMail they will not open.
Can I search by specific skills, seniority, and location for a role?
Yes. Write it in plain English, for example "senior React engineers with fintech experience in London" or "mid-level product designers in New York", and the search reads the intent. Skills, seniority, industry, and city all work as plain-English filters, with no boolean strings to build. Results are professional work profiles, not private individuals, and you only spend a credit on the ones you choose to reveal.
Do I get a candidate's personal email, and is it current?
The emails returned are verified professional work addresses, not personal or private ones. They are looked up live at the moment you request them, so they are current rather than a stale guess, and they are not always found, which is why the email credit is refunded whenever no verified address comes back. For a passive candidate, a direct work inbox is often the only realistic alternative to a message they will not read.
