Recruiters have a list of open roles with them, instead of asking employees to find out a best-fit candidate from their network, recruiters find that candidate from the Org Circle and ask for an intro from the connected employee.
You can ask for an intro using two methods:
Getting an intro using Org Circles
Navigate to Circles on the left nav
Change My Circles to Org Circles from the drop-down on Top Nav
Use filters to find the best-fit candidate
Click on the 'Get Intro' button
Select an employee from the mutual connections and shoot the email
That's it!
The above flow triggers an email to the mutually connected employee with an intro request email.
The email would have 2 CTAs:
Make Intro: Clicking this CTA will bring the employee to the Kula dashboard with a pre-filled email, keeping the recruiter in CC, and the candidate in the 'To' field. The employee can click on send with the pre-filled email or edit the email content to make it more personal.
Deny Intro: If the employee isn't comfortable making the intro, they can deny it. While denying, the employee is again brought back to the Kula dashboard, where they can confirm denying an intro by selecting a reason for denial.
Getting an intro using Global Search
Open the Search panel by clicking the search icon on the left navigation bar or simply press CMD + K
Search for the candidate by typing a few letters
Select the candidate
Click Get Intro on the contact card
Select the contact of the colleague who you want an introduction from
Shoot the email
