# Mode: contacto -- LinkedIn Power Move

> Apply `voice-dna.md` (if present) to every generated message — full guardrail, conversational voice included (Tier 1 + Tier 2). See `_shared.md` → Voice DNA.

1. **Identify targets** via WebSearch:
   - Hiring manager of the team
   - Assigned recruiter
   - 2-3 team peers (people with similar roles)
   - Interviewer (if the candidate already has a scheduled interview)

2. **Classify contact type** -- ask the candidate or infer from context:
   - **Recruiter** -- person whose role is talent acquisition, sourcing, or recruiting
   - **Hiring Manager** -- the person who leads the hiring team
   - **Peer** -- someone with a similar role in the team (indirect referral)
   - **Interviewer** -- someone who will interview the candidate (known date)

3. **Select primary target**: the person who would benefit most from the candidate being there

4. **Generate message** with a 3-sentence framework adapted to the contact type:

   ### Recruiter
   - **Sentence 1 (Fit)**: Direct match criteria -- role, relevant experience, availability, or location
   - **Sentence 2 (Proof)**: Data that answers their screening questions before they ask them (e.g., "5 years building ML pipelines, currently in Berlin, available immediately")
   - **Sentence 3 (CTA)**: "Happy to share my CV if this aligns with what you're looking for"

   ### Hiring Manager
   - **Sentence 1 (Hook)**: Specific challenge their team is facing (extracted from the JD, company blog, or news)
   - **Sentence 2 (Proof)**: Candidate's greatest quantifiable achievement showing they have solved similar problems
   - **Sentence 3 (CTA)**: "Would love to hear how your team is approaching [specific challenge]"

   ### Peer (referral)
   - **Sentence 1 (Interest)**: Genuine reference to their work -- blog post, talk, open-source project, or publication
   - **Sentence 2 (Connection)**: Something the candidate is doing in the same space (NOT a job pitch)
   - **Sentence 3 (CTA)**: "I've been working on similar problems at [company], would love to hear your take on [topic]"
   - **Note**: DO NOT ask for a job. The referral happens naturally if the conversation flows.

   ### Interviewer (pre-interview)
   - **Sentence 1 (Research)**: Reference to something specific from their work or trajectory
   - **Sentence 2 (Context)**: Light connection to the candidate's experience in that area
   - **Sentence 3 (CTA)**: "Looking forward to our conversation on [date]"
   - **Note**: Light tone, not desperate. The goal is to show that you prepared.

5. **Versions**:
   - EN (default)
   - ES (if Spanish company)

6. **Alternative targets** with justification for why they are good second choices

**Message rules:**
- Maximum 300 characters (LinkedIn connection request limit)
- NO corporate-speak
- NO "I'm passionate about..."
- Something that makes them want to respond
- NEVER share phone number
- The contact type changes the EMPHASIS, not the structure
