I’ve never seen an actual list. But, if you’ve run afoul of a key person on a team they can definitely put your resume in a drawer and forget about it

This assumes they’re actually that organized.

Yes but it's not a list - it just goes in the notes for your LinkedIn profile and internal tracker docs. If you contact me, I'll look you up and see if you've been here before, what teams or other recruiters said about you in the past. On some people we have in no uncertain terms notes not to hire again / do not want back

Something I've always been curious about. Do recruiters take note of a candidate that has applied to the same company for different roles a number of times over the years but not getting a response or not getting past to the final stage?

I interviewed at a law firm and had my final round last Friday. The Tuesday afterward, I got a call from the recruiter saying the firm won’t have a decision for another week. I believe they’re interviewing other candidates. Does that make me second or third choice? And does the fact that I’m working with a recruiter hurt my chances of being selected due to the commission? Should I hold out for the offer or is 1+ week a sign that I won’t be selected?

Nice bowl to avoid lowering the average in the US-centric threads. Anybody else finding that with the lack of pay rises this year, it’s become even harder to benchmark? Had a few recruiters recently suggesting I’d get 25% more by moving to a competitor but no telling whether that’s a short term-gain for a longer term hit.

How often do y’all adjust your rates? I’m fairly new to freelancing but I’m getting a ton of interest. The company I’m with met my rate with no negotiation, which signals I might be selling myself short. Is it uncool to ask for more if they want to extend my contract? Or is it better to just end with them and ask for more from the next company?

Friendly reminder folks- don’t work for Havas Health and You. They cut the freelancers hourly rates, again and made it so there’s no OT. The resource manager at HOV said if I couldn’t swing $80 an hour as an HCP copywriter, she’d have to find someone else. Good luck 👍🏻
