Hiding the name of the company and what they do is my biggest annoyance. Yes, I really care about that. More than their tech stack, and way more than a buzzword soup that poorly describes their tech stack.

Second biggest annoyance is keyword matching me and hundreds of other people and spamming us all, because so many times there isn't even close to a good fit other than your client uses java and I have some Android experience. Most of these people then make me feel like I'm a high pressure sales target, and in many ways I know I am so it's more understandable. But I'm not likely to want to work with you.

The best recruiters I've ever worked with make me feel like I'm the customer and they're doing me a service. Finding good opportunities can be hard, and I probably don't know the market as well as you do. Those recruiters don't outwardly care if I'm not interested in a particular role they thought was a good fit. They say that's ok, what don't you like? What should I look for when I send you opportunities?
