I got a call Wednesday from a recruiter looking for a mechanical design engineer with Solidworks experience. Ok, no problem there. Well whoops, the job is in Dallas and I'm not willing to relocate. Ok, not a big surprise, whatever. He asks if I know anyone who might fit the bill and, if so, if I could forward his contact information to them. Also not surprising.
Doesn't say a whit about "I don't have anything in the Austin area now, but I'll keep an eye out for any openings" or anything along those lines. That makes me a tad bit pissy because recruiters are supposed to be working for the job-seekers, not vice-versa. As a capper, he called me up just now to "touch base" and see if I'd had any luck finding referrals. So now I'm thinking... this guy's kind of a dick. Maybe I should post his contact info on Techans so that people can fuck with him. What do y'all say? Should I? -------------------- |
