Xing: Create contact requests - the best tips

The social media network Xing is all about jobs and the profession. With the perfect contact request, you can quickly secure one or the other contact. The best tips can be found in this practical tip.

The best tips for your Xing contact request

For a successful contact request, you should choose an individual message text followed by a personal address.

• It is very helpful if you go into a common topic or a common or personal acquaintance.
• You should avoid mass inquiries, such as "You fit my target group exactly", "Xingeling, let us network" or the like, as these seem too impersonal.
• If you are a Xing basic member, you can unfortunately no longer write an individual text when making a contact request.
• Therefore, you should make sure that your profile matches the information and interests of the contact.
• If you have the opportunity to speak to the contact personally beforehand through trade fairs or meetings, introduce yourself and enter your Xing name.
• If there are several contact inquiries, you should consider whether a Xing premium account would not make sense. This allows you to use the tips above to get in touch and have a better chance of success.
• Very important: Check your message for spelling errors before sending it. Exclamation marks should be used sparingly or not at all.
