A couple of recruiters have sent my resume to companies without my okay. This has happened twice recently, and now I'm worried about those companies thinking I'm desperate or unprofessional. Is this illegal on the recruiters' part or just a jerk move? Can I do anything about it?

This has happened to me in the past. I never worked with the recruiter again. I never got an interview from the company since I had already applied for the position on their website. I had also already interviewed for a position and a recruiter sent them my resume a couple of days after my interview without notifying me.
