I am looking to hire 5-6 managers for an Insurance Company. I currently send out an email blast to listings off of career sites, but most candidates that reply are not suitable. Have you seen an effective script that I can email out to attract managers (no experience needed in Insurance)? What I use isn't working.
Craigslist isn't too horrible. I got my first career job there (legitimate and great opportunity), as well as did all my house-rent shopping. Other than that, try LinkedIn. I just couldn't see myself spending money on those big career sites, that, as you said, are full of auto-reply people. Have you tried local networking or actually newspaper ads or targetting your crowd instead of mass emailing?

Why re-invent the wheel? Just modify one of the ads from the competition.

Thanks LaCelestina, I have started using that too.
I will train them in Insurance, but I'm looking for people with Management experience.
It does not translate. I'm a sales director for a company you know in your neck of the woods. Hiring paper tigers with no industry experience is a recipe for disaster. You're better off taking good insurance people and teaching them management.
Proper grammar and capitalization on your part may result in people taking you seriously. If I received a recruitment email from you written and capitalized like your posts in this thread I would discard it as spam.
I'm sorry, but any job that hires using a mass blast email script isn't a Management job, it's a "management" job that screams of MLM or debit-route life sales.
If you are indeed looking for real, live, people to actually do the job of a manager in the Insurance industry and legitimately have zero prospects, send me a PM - I'll point you in the direction of a few sources that you can find some legitimate candidates. All you're doing with this recruiting strategy is tarnishing your brand.
