I'm wondering if recruiters are just as irritating everywhere or that this is just the shitty situation we have in the Netherlands.

I was once called by an unknown number and heard a typical recruiter story. Since i never heard of or spoke to this person i kindly asked where he'd get my information from. Since mr, Recruiter didn't answer and just kept selling his great position i hung up.

He called back.

I picked up the phone again and he told me there were connection issues. I once again asked where he found my number. And again he just acted like he didnt hear me and sells his great position.

Hangs up and blocks the number. Go f(...) yourself damn recruiter!

    @asgs it would be pretty stupid to call people when you're deaf...

    That is a bad recruiter. Don't do business with them. There are good ones out there. Sometimes a recommendation helps.

    The situation with recruiters calling is crazy also here in Sweden. I've had over 100 calls from recruiters in the last half year. Many are just as annoying as you describe it - they don't take no for an answer and just keep on calling from different numbers. It's gone as far as me blocking the whole UK +44 country prefix, since many of them are from the UK and I only get recruiters calling from the UK.

    Calling is one. Most of them also try emailong or adding me on LinkedIn. I have like 20 friend requests open.

    I think most of them only see the number they will get paid for hired person and as far as I know those numbers ain't small.
