Welcome tag moderator AKA Unofficial DEV cheerleader. While most of my friends are found on SnapChat or Tic-Toc, you can find me here. And I OOP, but I’m not a VSCO girl.
Hey Sara, for me I would think about keeping my options open.
Respond with something like: Thanks for thinking about me, but I'm not available at this time. Offer to let them touch base with you at a later date. You never know when your current job could turn sour.
Totally agree. I use a canned response for those that did 0 work (or the message seems automated) and I write a custom one if a recruiter seems to have looked at my profile a little.
I don't usually connect, though (I used to, but the connections are so weak that they ruin any searches I do for 2nd degree connections)

Oh, that's a good idea, reply but don't connect. I usually ignore or reply & connect, didn't really realize that I could reply without connecting.
