Direct answer
Contact enrichment should be treated as a gated workflow, not a default step. The recruiter should confirm relevance before enrichment and respect opt-outs before outreach.
What to verify
Verify identity, role fit, professional context, source provenance, and whether your team is allowed to use the contact source.
Operating notes
- Confirm identity before enrichment.
- Track bounce and connect rates.
- Honor opt-outs.
- Keep source provenance with the candidate record.
Email vs phone
Email match rate and direct-dial quality are different metrics. Track both separately and do not assume one tool is best for both.
Candidate respect
A contact record is not permission to spam. Use personalization, relevance, frequency limits, and opt-out handling.
SourcingOS workflow
SourcingOS separates evidence from contact signals and gates enrichment behind authenticated workflows.

FAQ
Should enrichment happen before fit review?
Usually no. Review fit first, then enrich only when outreach is appropriate.
Is a contact finder the same as consent?
No. Consent, lawful basis, and outreach policy are separate questions.
