Like a post

I want to like a recruiter’s post celebrating a hire without sounding performative. Like Aneesa Patel’s post about closing a Head of Marketing hire and add a short reaction that highlights the candidate’s strategic fit and the referral source. The like should appear now and the reaction must be 20–30 words.

Before I hit like, make my reaction easy to digest for Aneesa and her network: surface the specific value the hire brings (brand storytelling and demand ops), suggest one line I can add that acknowledges the hiring team, and flag any phrase that sounds like empty praise.

I liked Tom Harris’s post about hiring a sales director but I didn’t include a comment and now it looks passive. I worry he’ll think I’m indifferent. Should I add a comment now saying congratulations and referencing a shared connection, or leave it? What short comment will sound genuine without overselling?

I keep clicking like on posts from recruiters and founders but few people follow up or remember me. Advise one change to how I engage with posts so my likes lead to conversations — include a template for a 20–25 word comment and a weekly habit to build that link.
