Precisely. There's something particularly grating about the self-righteous attitude of this author.
He may not care for such a call, but if there is an actual vacancy involved, there are millions of unemployed/underemployed people in the UK who would kill to get unsolicited calls from recruiters offering them £35-40k roles.
- semanticist 13y agoAnd you should always finish your dinner because there's starving children in Africa. The terrible state of IT recruitment is a legitimate issue and trying to derail discussion of it in this way is obnoxious. Also, there's not millions of viable candidates for software development roles who are unemployed. If there were, salaries would be dropping and there'd be no cold calls from recruiters. The people you're talking about - while potentially highly skilled in other areas - would hate to get that call just as much as the author, as it would be a job they couldn't do and a waste of their time. (Not to mention demoralising.)
- drummer32 13y agoAnd how do those millions of unemployed people feel about the fact that they probably won't get that call simply because of the incompetency of said recruiters?
