> I feel that the reason that recruiting sucks is because there's a misalignment between the recruiter and the employer.

It seems you missed the message, maybe I should put more focus on explaining it.

I think recruitment sucks for other reasons. Recruiters and employers are very much aligned on getting as many people as they can, and that's the problem.

Quantity does not make for quality, and sure companies need quantity, but most would do better focusing on quality.

I don't think this is true. I think that recruiters are looking for this (cause it's how they get paid). I do _not_ think that employers are looking for quantity.
