Do you also tell your recruiters to look at people individually and customize their introduction emails to the person in question?
Most emails I receive from recruiters are extremely templated, and hardly ever mention specific projects or jobs that I might have done. I would feel perfectly comfortable using spray-and-forget with these kinds of companies.
- jc4p 10y agoWhat you describe is one of my biggest annoyances too, and very common with contingency recruiters. Luckily, our internal recruiters are fantastic and a couple have taught themselves how to program to be able to carry on introductory talks better! Stack Overflow Jobs (our job board) also explicitly disallows this sort of behavior. If a first-touch e-mail doesn't list why the person in particular is being contacted, again, I think it's spam.
