What’s this new thing some people are doing on linkedin? They message you but don’t give a job description and you have to basically beg for it before even wanted to see if it’s worth working and hoping on a call for lol. Even asking for the client name too.. why is it like pulling teeth? I understand things are confidential (was told this one time, idk if true or not) but at least send me the job description so I can make sure it lines up with what I’ve done???

One thing about LinkedIn to remember that Sturgeon's Law not only applies, it's a bit optimistic.

Because you have to remember when someone messages you for a position, sometimes it’s something you haven’t done before.

Yep, I especially love it when you ask them for a JD, or provide a resume after that and then they ghost you. In my mind, recruiter table stakes should be: 1. share the JD immediately 2. is it remote/hybrid/onsite 3. pay range (it’s not a DoD secret, cough it up), and 4. how many potential interview rounds are there (and don’t lie about it). The few human recruiters left thought either have no idea what they’re doing and/or play games.

Been working on mostly (about 70%) public sector policy and strategy at Big 4 for most of my career. Often go up against MBB on RFPs and have a decent win rate.
