Hi,
When a job advert includes a person that you can contact for informal enquiries, do you normally get in touch with them? I've done this a couple of times with mixed results ie. got a very nice reply from one and a bit of an offhand reply from the other.
It's obviously a good thing to do if you have a specific question about the vacancy but what if the advert covers everything? I've asked a few people this - some say that you should always get in touch to introduce yourself while others think that it is pointless if you have no specific queries. Any thoughts would be much appreciated - thanks!
