Getting a call from a headhunter doesn't really mean that much. They are just trying to get someone with a decent resume into the interview pipeline where they will actually be evaluated. I get contacted somewhat frequently by people looking for machine learning devs (including facebook in the past and google quite recently) but there's never any specifics about position, salary, or project. After taking a few calls with headhunters just to see what it was like, I can't imagine someone who is not looking for a job anyway giving them serious attention. It's not a job offer; it's an offer to trudge through their interview process.
