In today's digital age, where artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming industries, harnessing the power of advanced language models like Microsoft Copilot can give you a competitive edge.
We’ve suggested some ways to get started with Copilot, which has revolutionised the world of work ever since it emerged in 2022. After each tip, we will give you an example prompt that you can use.
Spark engagements with LinkedIn post ideas
Maintaining an active presence on LinkedIn and sharing relevant content can build strong connections with both clients and candidates.
Example prompt: I am an agency recruiter in the logistics sector and am trying to bring in new clients. Give me 15 different ideas for content that I can post on LinkedIn to help with this.

Streamline LinkedIn posts
Beyond generating ideas, Copilot can also compose LinkedIn posts on your behalf.
Example prompt: write a LinkedIn post with five interview tips for candidates. The post should make reference to myself as a recruiter being able to support candidates in finding a job.
Elevate business development with sales emails
As an agency recruiter, regular communication with target clients is essential. If you find yourself short of ideas for sales emails, Copilot is here to assist.
Example prompt: I am an agency recruiter in the tech sector. Write three different sales emails that I can send to my target clients as part of my business development.
Targeted company business development
Knowing the right companies to target for your business development is crucial for a recruiter. To aid your research, simply ask for some ideas of companies you can target.
Example prompt: I am an agency recruiter in the scientific Industry. Give me a list of 30 small-to-medium sized companies in Austin, Texas area that I could target with my business development.

Mastering Boolean searches for candidate sourcing
Crafting effective Boolean (a result that can only have one of two possible values, such as true/false or yes/no) search strings is always going to be important for finding the right candidates. By leveraging Copilot's capabilities, you can produce customised Boolean searches to optimise your search efforts.
Example prompt: Below is a copy of a job description for a senior accountant. Use it to create three Boolean searches that I can do to help me find potential candidates for this role.
Dynamic candidate summaries
Impress your clients by sharing compelling summaries of great candidates you're working with. By inputting a candidate's resume into Copilot, you can obtain a concise and targeted summary.
Example prompt: Below is a copy of a candidate resume. Use this resume to create a seven bullet-pointed summary of the candidate that specifically targets them to a sales manager position.
Please remember to never share candidate’s personal information with AI tools.
Captivating job adverts
Crafting job adverts that attract a pool of qualified candidates is time-consuming. However, Copilot can alleviate this burden by generating attention-grabbing job adverts based on your job descriptions.
Example prompt: Below is a copy of a job description for a senior accountant. Write an attention-grabbing job advert to help me recruit for this role. Make sure to include a bullet-pointed section on the job duties and the applicant requirements.

Unleashing the potential of Copilot can help you as a recruiter be more efficient in the digital age. But a word of warning: any content that Copilot produces should be thoroughly checked and edited before use. Let it do the heavy lifting of writing content for you but make changes to put this writing into your own style.
