- Spends ages talking about what a great opportunity it is, then switches to "So what are your resourcing needs?" - Not telling me the name of the employer. I kinda need to know that if I'm to write an effective CV. Or if I want to move to where they're based. - Emailing my work address. Last think I want is my Outlook to pop-up a notification saying "Thanks for the job application" while I'm presenting to my boss. - Lying. So many do this - they lie about salary, experience needed, benefits, location, timescales. There are some good recruiters out there - but a lot of charlatans as well.
