That and they're trying to H1B out as many of the jobs that they can. From what I understand, before an agency can solicit H1B Visas they have to prove that they've made efforts to find a suitable native candidate, so they mass email, figuring that they'll make their "no" quota, before they start soliciting H1B's

I receive at least 3 offers a day for a position in San Jose or San Francisco, by both email and phone. I live in LA. I had one recruiter actually try to argue that the drive wasn't too far. Ummm... If you lived here, you'd know. I don't mind the initial contact, but if I say I'm not interested, geez, take a hint, arguing with me won't make me respond positively to any future contacts on 'local' positions either!! I had heard that most of the 'international' recruiting companies are actually just trying to find out the American 'required' pay rate, so they can bid on projects better. Anyone else heard of this?
