Apologies for digging up an old thread, but wanted to put in my $0.02. I'm a recruiter. But I haven't always been one - so I've had to deal with both good and bad recruiters. The bad ones are the ones that don't call you back when they say they will (if at all) or they put you forward for roles that just aren't right for you - very frustrating and annoying! The good ones though will actually take the time to listen to what YOU want and try to match you as best they can with the RIGHT client.
I'm trying to be a good recruiter. But like all humans, I don't always get it right. I really enjoy finding jobs for people and working with cool, innovative companies. Normally, you'll only ever deal with a recruiter when you really need one. There are a lot of dodgy cowboys/girls out there but luckily there are some good ones too.
