How to reply to a recruiter

The situation

A recruiter reached out for a role you're not actively pursuing, but you want to keep the door open without wasting anyone's time.

What they sent

Hi! Saw your background and thought you'd be a great fit for a Senior role we're hiring for. Open to chatting this week?

How to reply

Thanks for reaching out — I'm not actively looking right now, but I'd like to stay in touch. If you can share the role details and comp band, I'll flag you if my situation changes or if I know someone who fits.
