Would you send recordings of your best cold calls to a recruiter? I'm applying to a few different jobs and have them, but I'm not sure if that helps or looks desperate.

Not unless they specifically ask for it. If they want to see (hear?) examples, they'd ask. Sending it unsolicited feels like trying too hard. Also, is this normal practice? Most of our calls are recorded by default, or at least transcribed, but I've never thought about using them to job hunt. I feel like you'd need to get the prospect's sign off to use them, which would be enough for me to not even consider it.

Yeah .. I didn't think you could use them as you pleased because of data protection and whatnot

I’d worry more about consent and company policy than desperation. Some places are weird about recorded calls, even if they're anonymous.

Only if explicitly requested. Unprompted recordings can backfire. Better to reference performance metrics and offer samples if they want to see evidence of your style.
