    I can’t count on both hands the number of recruiters who were rude, or have done NOTHING for me. I had one leave the room we were meeting in, under the ruse of allowing me to fill out paperwork… and never came back. I had one who had the nerve to call me to “check in” and see how my job search was going… and commented that I was really active. Um Hello-if I wasn’t i’d be on my way to homelessness in the matter of a few months. She wasn’t doing anything or contacting me about any jobs, so I did I myself(and found my job). Most of the recruiters in my area seem to be a waste of time & space. Many of them have moved on to HR jobs in industry…. so if you wonder why HR is screwed up, there you go.

      Jen H, no argument from me about rude and incompetent recruiters. They are the bane of the profession AND it is next to impossible to spot the quality ones from the incompetent ones. AND I will also point out the absolutely insane job hunters and clients that exist in the process too. The candidate who bounced checks at interviews. The ones who fake their answers on video interviews while someone answers for them. https://youtu.be/12k4wH-arAw Interviewing and hiring and recruiting are awful for everyone.
