I'm working an ok job with an absolute wanker for an owner. I don't want to get too detailed, but I am VERY ready to leave my current position (working as an accountant for a F/B company).
My mom knows this, and when she saw a friend of hers, she mentioned it. This friend works in recruiting for a large company in the same industry. She mentioned to my mom they had an open role, and my mom mentions it to me. I reach out, and, after 5 emails over two days, Friend admits that the role is on site, 21/hr with no benefits.
She could just say this from the get-go. And this isn't some rando reaching out on LinkedIn. This is a close personal friend. She and her husband lived with my parents for like 6 months! And she couldn't help but feed me BS for two days before admitting that it was a garbage, dead end job.
These recruiters are almost as bad as lawyers.
