I got my first one a few days ago, from someone who's interested in joining my company.<p>I'm going to be conducting an informal meet and greet phone call with them this week. I've never interviewed anyone so I'm considering this to be a good way to practice.<p>In a way, it's the best cold email I've received so far. The rest are mostly AWS recruiter emails, which I've been getting every week. ಠ_ಠ
The acquisitions editor for the publisher of my first book cold emailed me. It was quite the shock and I almost thought it was a joke. Good thing I replied.
