    People who are hiring the best are hunters…

    In my experience people who are hiring are often greatly confused about all things related to hiring. Hunters is not the word I would use.

      They also seem to be clueless about the roles they’re hiring for. I’ve been contacted by many recruiters who can’t even answer the simple question what role they’re trying to fill or in which company.

        Many recruiters are reluctant to answer which company because, if you knew, you might circumvent them and apply directly.

          I’ve found it’s easy to do this anyway because the tricks they use to obfuscate the job description tend to be predictable. The original job posting can usually be found within a minute. That’s also without using AI search tools, which might be faster.

    One recruiter said the hiring company would not pay more than the market average (which already seemed low). I asked if they were hiring average people. He dodged the question.

    I was thinking it was actually quite reasonable, until I realized the emoji isn’t part of the banner he was talking about.

    Depends on the situation though, if you’re hard to replace at you current position the banner might scare your manager and get you a raise

    Bro, I just want to show up in the search queries. It probably won’t ultimately get me a job I want, so there is that, but cast a wide net. Get those bots working.

    Ideally you have a network of friends that work at great places which are hiring. If that is the case, congrats. For everyone else, be proud to be open to work.
