How do you find the hiring manager's contact information?

Follow these steps to find the firing manager's contact information: After you hit "submit" on a job application, following up can boost the odds of you being invited for a job interview. But first, you have to find the correct contact person.

• Check the job listing for a name or email address that obviously indicates a name (e.g., john.smith@mail.com)

• Check the company website to see if your contact is listed.

• Search for their LinkedIn profile for any contact information.

• Connect your network to see if someone else on LinkedIn knows the decision-maker or has a connection.

• The company's front desk can likely give you the name of the hiring manager. Call and tell them the job title you were applying for and they can give you the name and contact information for the hiring manager.
