Subject line writing (email)
A subject line is the single-line headline that decides whether a candidate opens your outreach email.
"I need a 7-word line that convinces a passive candidate to open now — not later."
A subject line conveys relevance and urgency in one short phrase so the recipient feels opening the email is worth their time; it balances personalization, role signal, and clarity in ~5–10 words.
