Comment on: Blog Post 'Why Recruiters Get a Bad Rap (a cautionery tale)': can I point something out? Your friend walked into the firm knowing nothing about them or the recruiter. In your story, you don't name any names. If you pulled this out and put it into an email, it would make the rounds as one of those stories, but without specific information, this is a waste of pixels. The people involved in the story aren't reading recruiting blogs. They don't care what you think, as they are just hiring young people and training them on a system that while vile, works well enough to employ the people in the bullpen. If we don't like it, then we have a responsibility to do more than put anonymously sourced stories out on the internet. There are many channels to report this kind of action. There are positive job posts where you can direct people how to not go into these situations, but since candidates wait to understand the job search until they're panicked, it won't do much good. All the warning in the world won't help if someone promises they'll try to help. So by all means, let's call out bad behavior. But let's channel it to the appropriate places. This is not an indictment of the recruiting world. It's an indictment of a company that we don't know where it operates, who it's principals are, or their version of the events. For every complaint about recruiters, I can give you dozens about candidates and clients. Let's for a moment take a contrary look. Why exactly does the company work in this fashion? They do because the client cut off access to the managers, and so the recruiting agency is left trying to find out about job openings from a different source, the candidates. If the candidates did indeed give out all of their information, the recruiting firm would have better information with which to place more candidates. This might not be fair to the individual, but it would be fair to the candidates that did get jobs as a result of the leads provided. The market is created by a scarcity of information. In not giving leads and referrals, the candidate is maximizing their chance of getting a position, even if they are not the best person for the position. That's a normal thing to do, protecting yourself, but it's a sign of scarcity. In small niche environments, sharing information is easier because it's easy to shut down bad actors. The information a top programmer gives a recruiter is more valuable than the information given by an administrative clerk, but the value of the information is greater to the clerk than the programmer, because there are more people who can do the clerk's job. The recruiter has more ability to call into a manager than the candidate. It's not a perfect system, but if your friend could do it, they would. So they need the recruiter. We can discuss the system in place, and the way it could have been handled, but the essential problem is your friend needs a job, and the recruiter knows a slightly better way to do it. If your friend thinks their time is wasted, they should do a better job pre-qualifying the recruiter, and making a decision whether or not to spend that time. It's not as cut and dry as recruiters have a bad reputation. …; Added by Jim Durbin at 1:24pm on May 3, 2011
