Not at all.

I've never done it and I don't feel like my career has suffered because of it. Unless you need to do a lot of networking in order to get in hand offer I don't really think it's necessary.

Yeah. I do. For some reason, recruiters take it seriously.

Hey folks,
I have been interviewed by 'FEI System', USA. But the offer letter which I have received is from a different company, 'Husys Consulting' Hyderabad.
When I asked them the reason behind this, they told me that FEI System has no physical presence in India, so 'Husys Consulting' hire on behalf of FEI System to meet legal compliance.
From the offer letter, it looks like it is third-party hiring. Should I accept this offer?
Any help would be appreciated.
