Will never understand recruiters who try to put me in positions that I am not qualified for.

No I do no qualify to be a Level III engineer at Amazon or a senior level developer at a large corporation that requires kernel level of knowledge. I work at a barely functioning small company. Stop trying to set me up for failure.

They don't really care - it takes them more time to sift through multiple applicants than it does to just mass spam everyone, suitable or not.

I once had a recruiter that emailed me about cleaning jobs in Boston. I live in the UK. And I'm definitely not after cleaning jobs.

Same. After my first real IT job hunt， i tried to get all nice and personal with them in order to find a job... Well no one really cared.

I found a good job in the end without their help and they have the guta to call me back 3 or 4 months later because they probably went through their list of files of who they didnt find a job for.

Funny though， new zealand is a country of non confrontation between the average person. And im french. I told it to fuck off and it was all “hoo im sorry” and i answered i was at work and i didnt care.

So fulfilling ;) had a great day!

Recruiters are a means to an end. Nothing else (and that is only because you are only a number to them).
