Recruiting firms don't publish the company name to avoid any legal issues with the content about the particular job. There's a great deal of legal concerns recruiters need to be mindful of when posting. e.g, anything that can be considered a form of discrimination.
Most recruiting firms simply avoid publishing the companies name publicly. Companies are very protective of their branding.
For all of those people who say it's about money are only going off of what they think. If these people tried to do recruiting they would learn the following:
1. Companies won't just accept candidates from any firm. In fact, there are legal contracts in place between the agency and company.
2. Agencies know that submitting your resume to the company isn't very productive. Recruiters have direct access to hiring managers and it's one of the "perks" of using a recruiter.
I know recruiters come off pretty "disrespectful" or "uncaring", but there's another side to the story. I'm an engineer and I decided to do recruiting for a year and learned a great deal about it. I thought my engineering experience would play a huge factor in finding the right people, but what I come to learn was people are very difficult to work with; especially us engineers.
- ryandrake 8y agoI'm curious too, and you didn't answer his question. What specific legal reasons/issues would prevent a recruiter from disclosing the name of the company he or she is recruiting for?
