I interviewed with a recruiter recently who admitted to contacting candidates in the 5-10 YOE range, over a role asking for 2 YOE with low pay. The recruiter complained about how long the search was taking, as everyone was turning down the job due to the pay

Client ended up taking a competitor's submission and we both lost out because this recruiter wasted time seeking a Sr candidate, down on their luck and willing to take 10 cents on the dollar, than a Jr that the client actually wanted

I hope that recruiter loses their job and meets the same fate as they have pushed onto people looking for work.

After 6 years of temporary contracts and unstable situations, I find my dream job in my dream company. All of a sudden the world goes upside down and I get laid off. I start sending hundreds of applications, with only 2 recruiters getting back to me to say I don’t have experience for the job (this is how it works in Italy). Add a terrible health situation in my family and it seems there’s no light at the end of the tunnel. Ugh. 😞
