I haven't been a consultant for as long as some of you, maybe 7 years or so, but it seems to me that the quality of solicitations from recruiters has progressively gotten worse in the last couple of years or so. I've gotten job req's from free email accounts (yahoo, msn, hotmail), and the grammar and language has gotten progressively worse as well. Granted, it's common and accepted for the initial call to be fielded by a recruiter or intern who isn't knowledgeable about every IT job out there, but come on! The following solicitation seemed so absurd to me that I've been saving it as an example of the worse recruitment attempt out there. It seriously gave me a giggle. I'd love to see some more examples out there, I need a good laugh. > -----Original Message----- > From: <. . .> > Sent: <. . .> > To: <. . .> > Subject: meta Systems Admintrator > > > Hi, > Pl send me ur resume in word format with ur phone numbers if your > interested > for the below mentioned req....... > Here the req goes...... > > Req: meta Systems Admintrator > Duration: 3 Months > Location: Sunnyvale, CA. <. . .>
