So what is your recruitment speciality and qualifications and work experience to get the ideal candidate?

There are good recruiters and bad recruiters. Same as most professions. Try and find one where they'll discuss your career and what you want to do rather than shoehorn you in to a position that they have. A good recruiter will complete an interview and should be able to build a target list of organisations that fit. It also has to be mentioned that some candidates have unrealistic expections of what they want and can be ott demanding.

Yes I am a parasite recruiter.

This was my expectation, however not one recruiter has actually offered to interview me, review me CV or offered any substantial advice around my expectations. I use to do a lot of the recruiting for my old company so I know my worth in the market.

Now reconsidering going to Monaghan instead of France for my holdays, just for the Indian food mind........

Crazy, I don't understand how a recruiter could fail to at least run through your cv and experience. How are they meant to present and sell you without doing that? Especially in niche recruitment like IT.

They wouldn't know what to ask. Lazy worthless individual's doing a job anyone could do.

True, but sure IT people are only tech geeks. Thrown them in anywhere and as long as they don't have to speak to anyone they're happy. 😒

Point proven. You are a credit to the parasites / recruiters.

Indeed. I bet your one of those needy candidates who blames the recruiter every time they get passed over for a job. Man up, you just weren't good enough.

Oh hit a nerve kid.  The ability of my left testical far outstreatches some twat sending out mass emails with no clue of the job or the ideal candidate. Talk to Bigfella he is the IT guru he could show you the way.

It will probably take a serious accident to occur before anything is done.

A tragedy is waiting to happen. Every year they build them bigger and in stupider areas.

Agree. What other civilized society would allow this year after year.

can someone confirm or deny this for me please, and I hope its deny...
as an out and out U2 fan, complete nut, who was brought up in north Dublin city, lived beside friends who went to the same Mount Temple school that spawned U2, I was disturbed on hearing that Bono came out with a statement on stage in Twickenham thanking England for looking after the Irish.....first thing that popped into my head was the "no Irish or blacks" thing.
any truth he said this?

Jesus wept indeed.

No Bono fan but I spent a good portion of my college and working life in England. The English really looked after me too despite a few odd c***ts along the way. Get a grip and a bit of perspective would you.

When you say looked after you - did they bathe you, give you a few pounds to go out at the weekend, clean the snot from your nose - or did individuals in a town / city you resided in just treat you as a normal human being? More that one needs to catch a grip and get a bit of perspective!

So seriously how did they look after you, did they massage your ego, tell you you are better than the paddys that didn't receive an English education, tell you to return and look down your nose as the unworthy ones. 

Nadal match some game.

The altar boys will love him!

And what?

Of course you would. Doesn't make it any less true.

Completely untrue for IT recruitment. Yet to meet one who knows wtf they are talking about.  They just care for the referral fee.

Haven't seen much of the golf today. How's our Rors getting on?

You go onto the internet to ask someone else on the internet to lookup a result on the internet for you.
