Here is what I do not get: 1. Recruiters expect me to spend my free-time at their disposal to use my dev contacts for them? My dev contacts remain my dev contacts because they know that if I ever turn over a contact to a 3rd party I do some review of the opportunity to see if its a scam or recruiter bs first and only turn over contacts to that 3rd party if they are a founder, cop-founder, or the actual ,manager the person will work under. 2. To me relationships are formed over a good meal and a good drink, no offense to you HN'ers but that is what it comes down to. If someone wants to recruit me than consider taking me out for a meal. Its not necessarily the cost of the meal, its the fact that you took sometime to spend on forming a relationship with me.
