Can these lazy ass recruiters stop sending me vague emails asking to hop on a call to discuss job opportunities that would fit? Take 5 minutes to view my LinkedIn and suggest a role or roles that fit and send me the JD... Christ.

You realize that they're sending the same email/message to likely dozens of people, right? If they were to actually tailor it to you, they'd have to stop spraying and praying, which is antithetical to their current model.

I imagine the success rate would be higher if they actually targeted these. I don't even respond to anyone who does this, and I imagine most other in demand prospects don't either. Unless you're FAANG this approach isn't going to work.

Some people complain about recruiters who call them…

Other people can’t even get a call with a recruiter…

A tale of two cities. The haves, and the have nots.

A tip to filter out these spray and pray recruiters is to put an emoji in front of your name on your LinkedIn profile. If they pull the emoji in it’s most likely they’re sending the same email to dozens of people. If they don’t, then they made an effort to tailor the message to you.

Exiting my current position I'll be leaving a 3% pay increase, $12k bonus payout next month and full remote work on the table.
