No. Specifically referring to independent recruiters / recruiter firms that are not employed by the firm they are hiring for. My reasons are chalked up to a number of poor experiences over almost 10 years. Save for one, every interaction I've had with recruiters (in Toronto) is the same. - The few vague details they have almost always prove incorrect in the end. - Every job is cutting edge and exciting when it's usually not - When you don't get the position, they often don't get back to you and ignore your attempts at communication. - The don't have enough background in the area they are hiring for and will confuse details. e.g. Java is not JavaScript
