Maybe you work there at the moment, and don't want your boss to know that you're looking for jobs... Maybe you've worked there before, and don't want to contact them again. Maybe you don't want to work there for ethical (or similar personal) reasons. There's generally nothing stopping recruiters divulging clients' names. They usually don't *want* to tell you too soon to prevent you from contacting directly and the recruiter missing out on their 20%. But since the OP isn't a recruiter but is the end client looking to cut out the middle man (I assume, because he talks about using recruiters, and it would be strange for recruiters to outsource to competitors :-), it would be entirely reasonable and probably extremely sensible to put the company name in any advertisement. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
