I was originally going to make a SAAS for recruiters, so I did customer interviews for about 30 of them. I came to the understanding that they all vary in the way they organize their information. There was even one firm that still had paper resumes on file. I think the best recruiters I talked to had a great skill at reading you like any great salesman. The ones that I did not like as much were fresh in the industry, and they sounded like they were sitting in a boiler room.

Ugh! This is so true. I've had good experiences dealing with both Aerotek and Development Resources Group (DRG here in the Twin Cities) both of whom found me great prospects, one of which I accepted. They both did really a really good job of matching me with open positions.

Beyond.com is still spamming me with openings even after I asked them to stop and the one rep I spoke to on the phone barely had a clue what I did and just kept trying to make my job experience fit what she was trying to push.
