The industry needs an "IT recruitment horror stories" website.
I got contacted once by a recruiter offering me a job in my company, the same position I was employed in, and the recruiter told me I was "a good match" for that role. Yes, looks like I could get that job if I wasn't already hired in that exact same position.

- reidrac 13y agoMy employer is always hiring Python developers because in this area looks like is hard to find the right candidate: http://www.memset.com/careers/#PythonSoftwareDeveloper http://www.memset.com/careers/#PythonSoftwareDeveloper But you're right, that was my first thought :)
- chris_wot 13y agoPity. It would have been amusing if you had applied and turned up for the interview!
- bobbbert 13y agothey could help their search for the right candidate by dropping the unnecessary requirement of a technical degree. you don't need to have studied a STEM degree to know python, SQL, jQuery etc
- reidrac 13y agoI totally agree. In fact I'm surprised, I would have expected "or equivalent experience" or anything in that line.
