Linkedin Premium - Rackspace Recruiters

Hello all, does anyone have any tips on leveraging Linkedin premium to land a job? My specific case is I would like to reach out to recruiters at RackSpace.com, but because I only have a few InMail credits, I don't want to waste a credit on a useless contact. Any tips on finding good contacts?

f16jetman,

Go ahead and apply for a position. Once you have that done, send a brief IM to a recruiter stating, " Hi, my name is XXX. I just applied for position XXX ( req #XXX). I feel I am great fit for this position because XXX. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me via email (Insert address here), Phone (Number here), or respond back via LinkedIn messaging. I look forward to hearing from you."

You should get a response to from a recruiter. There job is to source candidates, talk with people, and in general positively represent the company. If you dont' get a response from a recruiter after that, just let it go, and don't worry about it.
