QUOTE(Lancer07 @ May 24 2022, 02:18 PM) Why many recruiters want people to send them a resume first, before introducing job later? Because they feel that explaining a bunch of information to someone without knowing if they are qualified or a fit for the role is a waste of time. They want to know if the resume is worth for KIV. If your resume is nice, they may call you, if not, expect to be ghosted. boyz liked this post

QUOTE(Lancer07 @ May 24 2022, 05:08 PM) But some recruiters didn't post the job title and description first ( especially in LinkedIn, private message), they want people to send resume first, which I think is weird. Feel free to ignore them. The professional ones will share at least something about the role first before asking you to submit your resume.It takes both ways, and applicants also won't know whether they qualify for the job role by just sending their resume first. Those who just ask for resume are cold calling, hoping to build up a pool of candidates to pull from when they take on other searches in the future. |
