- pc86 10y agoRecruiters remove your contact information from resumes they pass along to prevent companies from contacting you directly. I didn't mean that I trust the recruiter, I meant a common (and incorrect) assumption, especially among developers, is that they can negotiate a small salary increase because they don't come with a $20k+ price tag for a recruiter. This is not accurate for any company who can afford to have you on for more than six months.
