As somebody who also works in embedded systems, I had almost the same experience with Vettery. I tried them out a year or two ago, and found that there was literally no way to add keywords/tags as a user. So if Vettery didn't have an existing keyword for [language or skill you're good at], then you have no way to advertise that skill to companies hiring from Vettery. Then Vettery basically just wouldn't leave me alone and one of their agents kept pestering me to finish my profile. I told them that I couldn't fill it out because I couldn't add the right keywords for my specialties, and they said something like "if you send me a list of your specialties, I can raise a support ticket to try and get them added to the list". I wrote off their platform as fundamentally broken right in that moment. Vettery: "We use machine learning and real-time data to match talented job-seekers with inspiring companies. Our goal is to enrich and automate the recruiting process." Yeah, right.
