J Francisco asked, over on ERE, I'm looking for input on ZoomInfo. I was offered a free trial for 24 hours so I used that to look for professionals who were a potential fit for an opening we have at our company. My question is this: The email addresses for 98% of these people are their work addresses. I don't feel comfortable contacting individuals at their work address regarding a new opportunity. It seems unprofessional and frankly, pretty tacky. I'd like feedback as to how I could use ZoomInfo in my recruiting (since it seems that a lot of recruiters already do) and do so in an ethical manner.
Thanks for any input you may have!
There are a couple replies to that request here. Looking backward, there seems to be a lot of discussion on ERE about ZoomInfo - here are some of the most recent:
Another ZoomInfo discussion late last month here.
Another one from January.
Again, in November, 2007.
One discussing ZoomInfo, TalentHook, BroadLook, etc. in July last year.
A May, 2007 discussion.
A January, 2007 discussion - can Zoom find low-level candidates?
