What do you consult in? Big4 here look at university that you studied in, best to get a referral that's solid.

Manager 1 Im okay with starting as an associate instead of a senior associate. But looks like these applications go nowhere without a referral

I just started looking for a job and made some profiles on various job boards. I'm getting a lot of emails from recruiters that look like this. Whenever I talk to them on the phone it's very hard to hear them and the whole thing just seems a bit fishy. They ask for my DOB, and one asked if I would sign something so they could market my profile. Is this a scam?
I've censored names, addresses, and phone numbers.
