Ever wonder what recruiters think of you

Ever wonder what recruiters think of you I came across a great article by Sarah Needleman of the Wall Street Journal that had me completely entertained. If youve followed my blog over the last 6 months youll recall that I like trying to decipher the recruiter and explore the relationship between the job seeker and the recruiter. Sarah wrote a great article on something that I hadnt really considered, although there are a few recruiters that immediately come to mind when I read through this list (Ill mention no names ;)). Ill give you the skeleton here, take a few minutes and read her entire article especially if you are working with a recruiter now! I swear its worth the time to read this A Job Seekers Guide to Recruiter Code Words TMI (Too Much Information) FD (Factual Discrepency) Search Virgin NonCom PP (poor presentation) ↓ Sizzle Serial Networker Mortician WD (walking description) Purple Squirrel So what best describes you (read the article for full descriptions)? Once you figure it out shoot your recruiter an e-mail and ask them where you fit (theyll probably lie to you if you are a mortician, FD, PP, noncom, etc.). Recruiters, is it true? Are we indeed stereotyped into these cute little tags?
