If you’ve spent any time on LinkedIn in the last few years, you already know Mitch King. He’s the Principal Talent Acquisition Manager who somehow made recruiting entertaining, writing exactly how he talks and cutting through the noise with charm, honesty, and the occasional dad-level pun.

1. What would your MySpace song be in 2025?
Golden by Huntr/x.

My kids & my dog.

4. A tool, app, or sneaky little shortcut you swear by?
Briskine for punching out receptive messages i.e. No am I not interested in your offshore IT solutions.

I write how I talk.

Chicken wings.

9. Best DM you’ve ever received (or sent)?
Best one I ever sent was asking someone that worked at Havas if "can we havas a chat about headhunting you" They never replied, still gutted.

10. What’s your biggest ick on LinkedIn right now?
The ads that I am getting daily for adult diapers. I feel very attacked by the frequency and the profiling of these images in my feed.
