I just opened my LinkedIn profile to show I was looking for a job. I was immediately bombarded by recruiters. Some were from England. How can they offer me a job here? Then everyone of them wanted me to use their expert to make my resume compliant with ATS or something like that. Has anyone else had that experience? Is that scams?

Many recruiting companies work with global companies so they aren't all automatically scams. However, the amount of scammers posing as recruiter has skyrocketed recently given the tough labor market. Be cautious and vet them before providing any personal information.

You can also just wait a day or two to respond as many of the scammer accounts get shut down within 24-48 hours.

She seems like a nice person but i have 0 positive work feedback tbh
