Are messages from recruiters just scams now?
Last 4 recruiters that have reached out to me on LinkedIn have insisted that I am 'a perfect fit' for Sales Engineer roles.
I check out the job descriptions, and they sound interesting. I message back saying that it looks neat and I'd like to chat more about the role and my experience. I ask if there is a day/time that they would be available to talk.
They respond enthusiastically, asking for my resume and contact info. I send it over and then....crickets.
Multiple, multiple follow up messages asking about setting up a call and what next steps look like. Nothing.
Are companies just farming resume data and contact info through LI messages? Or are these HR people wildly incompetent at their jobs?
