What does the response rate show – and how is it calculated?

The response rate indicates how often other users respond to messages they receive. It provides an indication of how reliable and active users are.

The following is taken into account:

  • Time period: The entire period from the day the profile was created to the present day is taken into account.
  • Message status: Unanswered, deleted and archived messages also count.
  • Response speed: Responding to messages quickly improves your response rate.

👉 Tip: You can improve your response rate by responding to current and future messages promptly. If you are not interested in an application, you can use the ‘Not interested’ button – these messages are also considered answered and have a correspondingly positive influence on your rate.
