That's a good start. I have yet to find a recruiter or agency that didn't ultimately leave me feeling raped in the end. And that's regardless of whether or not I ultimately got a job through them. I know recruiters are busy and are trying to fill openings. But is it SO freaking hard to treat somebody who has just been DQ'd for whatever reason like a human being? Each and every time I have ever been passed over for a job, the recruiter has stopped answering my emails and/or phone calls. Completely. Not a peep from them ever again UNLESS another opening came up. It's like I'm not worth the five seconds of their time since I'm no longer somebody that could make them money at that instant. What's worse, is that they come off all friendly and helpful and everything at the start... but then, as time passes, they become less involved. Even where I am now... the guy handling my position has yet to EVER call me back to ask how things are going, or to take me to lunch as he repeatedly promised at the start. If I email him, I will get a reply usually within 24 hrs with a short response. If I have a followup question, it never gets answered. And I've been dealing with these lowlifes since the late 90's, so it's not like I've encountered "a few bad apples." I firmly believe this to be the norm. I think I would sooner try to sell cars than become a recruiter.
