Or,when you don't respond fast enough to their email's, they call you on the phone.
Or they offer the worst possible position hoping that you are desperate enough to jump at anything.
Listen guys...If I have any Interest, I will make contact... Otherwise, Go Away OK?

Unfortunately, these internet sites give the morons accessiblity to greater stupidities than they had when I was in the job market (8 1/2 years with a company). I remember the head hunters back then...
Of course there was that one... but you don't want me to go there.

Recruiters... don't get me started. Oh, well, too late.
There are those that don't even read your resume. Such is the situation you stated. Then there are those that creatively interpret your skill set: "Hmm. Your resume says that you support clustered servers running Oracle RAC. You must be a DBA! Let me send you 17 DBA postings!" And then, there are those that creatively interpret the posting requirements: "Hi there. I have a position for a Sun Spark Admin. Do you have a background heavy in PEARL? You will need to be Microsoft certified, will this be a problem?"
I post my resume in two flavors: pdf and ASCII text. I've shot down two postings because the recruiter DEMANDED that my resume be in "Word" format.
Grrr...

I'M NOT LOOKING ANYMORE!!!
And, FYI, it's not about the money. Just because you get paid a bunch of money, doesn't mean that you could be happier somewhere else. That's why I WAS looking.
