# Recommand Follow-up — Complete Package

**Subject:** Vervolg op sollicitatie Junior Software Engineer — Sage Stockmans

---

Hallo team van Recommand,

Eind vorige maand stuurde ik mijn sollicitatie voor de functie van Junior Software Engineer. Ik begrijp dat jullie het druk hebben, maar ik wilde even polsen of mijn e-mail goed is aangekomen en of er nog ruimte is in het proces.

Ik blijf erg geinteresseerd in Recommand en jullie missie rond open-source bedrijfsautomatisering. De combinatie van AI-assisted development, modulaire architectuur en echte B2B-infrastructuur is precies waar ik mee aan de slag wil.

Sinds mijn sollicitatie heb ik mijn portfolio verder uitgebreid met een home server project (Proxmox, Docker, n8n, Nextcloud, Pi-hole) en een paar klantwebsites in productie. Ik blijf actief AI-tools integreren in mijn workflow.

Ik ben volledig beschikbaar voor hybride werk op Corda Campus en zou graag een keer langskomen voor een kennismaking. Lijkt het jullie wat om volgende week even te sparren over de rol?

Ik hoor het graag!

Vriendelijke groeten,
Sage Stockmans

## 💬 LinkedIn Outreach Templates

### Template A: Connection Request (to CTO/Tech Lead/Founder)

```
Hi [Name],

I applied for the Junior Software Engineer role at Recommand a few weeks ago and wanted to reach out directly. I'm really excited about your mission around open-source Peppol infrastructure and AI-assisted development.

I build with TypeScript, Laravel, Angular, and Docker — and I'm actively exploring AI tooling in my workflow (including setting up my own home server lab with Proxmox, n8n, and Hermes AI agent).

I'd love to learn more about the team and potentially swing by Corda Campus for a chat. Would you be open to a brief call or coffee next week?

Best,
Sage Stockmans
```

### Template B: Follow-up After Connection Accepted

```
Hi [Name], thanks for connecting!

As I mentioned, I applied for the Junior Software Engineer role at Recommand. I'm particularly drawn to the Bun/Hono/React 19 stack and the open-source B2B infrastructure mission.

Quick question: is the role still open? I'd love to drop by Corda Campus for a chat if you have 15 minutes free.

Best,
Sage
