If you didn’t sign a contract with any of the recruiters, just do whatever you think gets you the job offer you want. Good luck!
If the firm has your resume already the recruiter can't do anything
Basically - I know about the whole “associates screw over recruiters by taking the firm name and then applying themselves” dialogue and I personally make it a point not to do that, but I’ve also worked with enough incompetent recruiters to suspect when this might be a one-and-done type submission, and I’d rather not simultaneously work with too many people in that category either.
If you applied within the last 6-9 months then it’s doesn’t matter the recruiter can’t help you.
I had applied to the recruiter’s listing on LinkedIn; I didn’t apply to the firm directly.
