They needed you to fill out the form to show they found a lead most likely. Gotta boost those numbers to show worth

bahua129055yYeah, they don't care that it isn't a fit. They only care that you're a warm body to show they're being productive.

Yeah, it seems at some point in time “recruitment” became synonymous with “spam”. They no longer seek to actually find a perfect candidate for the job, but to bring on as many as possible, no matter if they fit the position or not.

vane112845y@Plasticnova I feel offended by your comment I will report this incident to the higher council.
They will organize meeting and discuss how to proceed with your inappropriate behavior. -
I'm involved in recruiting people for my teams, and once had a recruitment agent say "if we throw enough at it, eventually something will stick". That was the last time I spoke to him, as I realised I was doing his job of filtering out candidates that clearly weren't right for the role
-
Did you ask them if they would be able to relocate if you where matching what they're searching for?
-
@MeadCoder I didn't ask because I don't want to relocate. Just settled down
-
@practiseSafeHex No, not you, them. @MeadCoder says if you asked them if THEY would be open to relocate to where you are. 😂
-
@ethernetzero @MeadCoder oh! Haha, my bad. No I didn’t but that might be my new go to move

HR: Hi we got your application. We'd like to schedule a call. Can you fill this out to pick a time?
Me: Sure, sorry first I'd like to ask a question. You are based on the other side of the country and i'm not able to relocate. Are you open to remote workers? Your job spec didn't mention either way.
HR: GREAT question! At this moment no we are not. We need people here on site. If you'd like, we can have a call to discuss if you fill out the form.
Me: ..... take time out of my day so you can tell me "No" again? ..... i'm alright thanks
