How to reach them · No address printed
Carir's Contacts researches the people behind a role: the hiring manager and the recruiter first, then people in the same function. Each comes with why they matter for that posting and the public pages that name them. Emails appear only when a page prints them, and Carir drafts outreach that you send yourself.
What job search networking does for you
What does it do?
For a role you star or add to Contacts, it searches public pages for the people connected to it: web searches, the company's own team pages, news, open-source organisations, and contact details printed on public pages. It keeps only people a page names, explains each, and drafts outreach.
Who is it for?
Anyone who would rather be remembered than filtered: students and first-generation applicants without an industry network, career changers entering a new field, and anyone applying where a referral helps.
What problem does it solve?
Finding the right person for a specific posting takes searching, guessing and cross-checking, so most people skip it. Contacts does the research per role and shows its sources, so you can reach out with a reason.
How is it different from searching LinkedIn yourself?
It looks across public pages for the people tied to this posting, explains why each matters for it, and cites where it found them. You still decide who to write to and send the note yourself.
How does it connect to the rest of Carir?
Starring a role on your wishlist adds it to Contacts and, on Pro, starts the research. Matches cards have a Reach out button, the posting drawer in Search has People to reach, and a follow-up suggested on Today opens a draft here.
How it works
- Choose the roles you care about.Star a role, or add it to Contacts from Search or Matches.
- Carir researches the people behind each.The hiring manager and the recruiter first, then people in the same function, from public pages. A person is kept only if a page names them.
- You see why each one matters.Who they are, why they matter for this posting, how to open, and the public pages that name them. Emails only when a page prints them.
- You send the note.Carir drafts a recruiter email, a cold intro, a cold message or a warm intro. You copy it or open it in your own mail.
Why it helps
Sources you can open
Every person comes with the public pages that name them, and each justification is checked against those pages.
No scraping, no guessed emails
LinkedIn is never fetched, paid people-data sites are never used, each site's robots.txt is respected, and no email is guessed.
Drafts that sound like you
Outreach drafts never invent experience, numbers or names, and Carir never sends them for you.
Your own network, too
Import your LinkedIn connections file on any plan, and Today shows the companies where you already know someone, with a warm intro to draft.
This isn't an isolated tool.
Contacts turns an application into a conversation. The roles come from your wishlist, Matches and Search, the drafts draw on your resume, and a follow-up suggested on Today opens here with a draft ready.

Questions about job search networking
Who should I contact about a job?
Start with the hiring manager, the person the role reports to, and the recruiter handling it. Then look at people in the same team or function. Carir's Contacts researches these people for a posting and shows why each matters and where it found them.
Where does Carir find contacts?
On public pages: web searches, the company's own team pages, news, open-source organisations and contact details printed on public pages. LinkedIn is never fetched, paid people-data sites are never used, and each site's robots.txt is respected.
Does Carir guess email addresses?
No. An email address appears only when a public page printed it and it matches the person's name. Otherwise Carir shows the pages that name the person and drafts a note you can send another way.
Will Carir message people for me?
No. Carir drafts the outreach (a recruiter email, a cold intro, a cold message or a warm intro), and you copy it or open it in your own mail client. Nothing is sent from Carir to the people you find.
Is networking on Carir free?
Finding people is part of Pro and the five-day trial. On the free plan you can still import your LinkedIn connections, see anyone already found for a company or named in a posting, and write outreach drafts each month.
One profile. One agent. Every step of the search.
Job search networking is one part of the Carir AI Agent. The free plan keeps job search, the ATS check, the resume builder, alerts and the tracker. The five-day Pro trial adds Matches, the AI tailor, Auto Apply, contact research and career intelligence; it needs no card and ends on its own.
