Just got one that said "I have a netsuite job are you interested or if not do you know anyone". I wrote back that as a senior level recruiters, this is lazy at best, you've told me nothing about the company, job or anything. Why would anyone be interested? They wrote back that it was a connect message and TRIED AGAIN to get me to talk to them about it. Like holy crap. If there are any recruiters that read this, please just tell the job, company and salary range and you're gonna get way more hits and people interested IMO.

your assumption may be wrong on "a senior level" - I doubt a senior level head hunter would be that incompetent.

It said senior in his title so I went w/ it

"Senior" is a goofy term is recruiting. Seems like they promote really fast.

"Your background is very impressive and I think you would be a good fit for [insert random completely unrelated field]"

They didn't even tell me my background was impressive 😞

I've got one that is messaging me like every 5 days. "I'm really interested in your background"

just got this via LinkedIn • Hi Sam • Please let me know if you any friends or colleagues ◦ 👏 ◦ 👍 ◦ 👎 ◦ 😊 ◦ 😞 • • ◦ • NetSuite IT solution Consultant or architect (Finance apps) for Remote • • Contract • • • • Job Description: NetSuite IT solution Consultant or architect (Finance apps) • • Must have • • 01) deep understanding of NetSuite architecture, eco system (Must have 5+ years of hand on NetSuite experience) • • 02) excellent finance (Order to Cash , Revenue, Record to report , enterprise performance management, procure to pay, T&E , treasury etc.)) process knowledge.

I don't know why people post crap to reddit/jobs channel without salary bands.

Thats how I am these days. I ask for a salary range and company and if they give neither I am not interested. You gotta make time on their "calendar" link yourself and then they call you just to tell you the info they could've given in the initial intro.

I like to send them here to the #C29J6STC6 channel. where they can see what works, and what doesn’t.

Not gonna shock you, but its probably dem millennials as headhunters working like they they're using tinder 🤷‍♂️

Just got a cold call on my personal cell from a recruiter, that's a new one for me.

How the heck did they get your number ?

That's a good question.

Most probably from some archived resume bank, I do get phone calls sometimes from headhunting companies which I have worked with in the past.

A personal cell sounds like a past CV, a recruitement website profile, a email footer

Oh, it's out there on some kind of marketing research site where they pulled it up

May be Anderson Frank is selling their list now a days

But they must be a fair bit desperate to resort to reaching out to me via phone haha

dunno, in apac, phone is a bit of spam, mixed with other spam, usually i dont mind a whatsapp connect
