Following up on Matt's article about recruitment consultants I want to rant about them myself!
Ten minutes ago I recieved an email from someone at Senitor offering me an excelent Desktop Support candidate.
Now, having nothing to do with desktop support as all our IT is provided by our parent group I wrote said recruitment consultant a polite but concise email stating that I am a web developer, I am only concirned with web development and that I wish to be removed from any mailing lists for IT Support staff, but that it was fine for them to keep emailing me about Flash or Web Development candidates they might have.
So two mins later I recieve my read-receipt and all is well. THEN, five minutes after that I get a phone call from some other chap at senitor saying he's just recieved word from this other chap (who I just emailed) saying that I'm looking for a freelancer and can he be of any help.
So I spent five minutes explaining what I had previously wrote in my email and then informed him that we are acutally looking for a Permanent Senior Flash Developer and that he could rind Matt about that.
He mumbled that one of collegues deals with permanent developers and said he would get him to ring through. The conversation ended.
Wonder if I'll get any more IT support emails from them, or maybe a freelance chef or a mechanic?
Good work recruitment consultants!
