Has anyone intentionally blocked a recruiter? Initially they apply the pressure to get you interested in a role.
You provide your resume and then crickets. I'm getting too many of these. I wonder if they're just collecting resumes. It's a waste of my time.

Bunch of recruiters either based out of UK or India might be doing this. As soon as I reply or send my availability with resume they disappear. So I learned to respond without resume but with summary and don’t even provide phone number. When they reply back and ask for my resume or phone number to schedule a call then I share based on how I feel. Also watch out if it’s a senior level role, based on how you reply sometimes these recruiters don’t reply (most of the recruiters are from UK). Third one is my favorite where it’s a start up company and they will pay $200 an hour and when you reply they send you 22 questions to answer, at that point you know it is fake and they are just looking for answers for free.

What works best for me, before I provide my resume I provide 3-4 line summary when I reply and I ask for hourly rate or base annual compensation and if they reply great and if not I do not chase.

A lot of the TCS hourly roles (6-12 months) are given to the recruiters with very low rate (30-40% lower than standard) and a lot of these recruiters are struggling to fill in these roles because they don’t pay well and they are collecting resume.

If you feel the email or LinkedIn message is scam based on how it was written or where the person from or how long he or she stayed with current company you should be able to make a judgement call

Hope this helps
