Starter prompt
You are helping a recruiter source for this role. Produce three things.
1) Three LinkedIn Boolean search strings — one tight, one broader, one that targets near-adjacent backgrounds. Explain who each one catches and misses.
2) Three outreach opener templates (under 90 words each) — one for exact-match candidates, one for career-switchers, one for senior folks who likely don't need the job. Each must:
- Reference a hook I can replace with something specific about the candidate's work.
- Name the role and one concrete reason it's interesting.
- End with a low-friction ask (quick 15-min intro call).
- Avoid clichés ("rockstar", "ninja", "we're changing the world").
3) A short checklist of red flags to avoid in the opener (spray-and-pray tone, salary bait, etc.).
