Well for the recruiter it is probably no risk. They get paid if the person gets hired, nothing happens to the recruiter if the candidate gets fired/arrested a year down the line for lying on their CV.
- wccrawford 14y agoWe had recruiters do this to us. We clearly told those recruiters that if we catch them at it again, we'll stop using them. They stopped. It's not 'no risk' for them, but only if they company calls them on it. If more companies put their foot down, this problem would largely disappear.
- randlet 14y agoWhy give them a second chance at all? It is essentially a "no risk" situation for them if the only consequence for them is a slap on the wrist for a first offence.
- wccrawford 14y agoBecause like it or not, we needed them. We were willing to take the pain of dropping them if it was the only way to get them to stop causing us extra pain. Since they stopped when forced to, the pain was gone and we continued. We used a couple other recruiting companies, too, and none of them produced enough viable candidates to keep the desks filled. (That sounds worse than it was. It was a growing company.)
