How to add a contact

ContactsUpdated Mar 13, 2026~1 min read

Keep track of every recruiter, hiring manager, and connection involved in your job search.

Add a contact manually:

  1. Go to Contacts and click Add Contact
  2. Enter their name, title, company, and email
  3. Choose a contact type (recruiter, hiring manager, referral, or connection)
  4. Link the contact to one or more jobs

Add a contact with AI Quick Capture:

  1. Click Quick Capture
  2. Paste text from a LinkedIn profile
  3. AI fills in the name, title, company, and email automatically

Log interactions:

Record emails, calls, meetings, and notes for any contact to build an activity timeline.

Duplicate detection:

Orbit warns you if a contact with the same name already exists and offers to link the existing contact to a job instead of creating a duplicate.

Tip: Link every contact to the jobs they are associated with. This powers your Atlas graph and follow-up reminders.
