Half the time there is no client... They are just luring you in, and once they have your resume, it gets spammed out to as many employers as the have in their address book. Your resume gets used as "bait" in order for them to find new clients.
Even at DeveloperAuction we get clueless recruiters pitching us Java Engineers in NYC (We're rails in SF) and sending us "blinded" resumes with personally identifiable contact details removed. It's craziness!
- darylfritz 13y agoThat's my biggest concern. The other is, often I find their claims to be mis-repesented. "We have a large media client downtown" really meant "a company of 20 people, and 3 developers". If they had told me the name, I would have seen right through the BS.
