Headhunters work on commission in a very cut-throat business. Every one I have ever contacted has made me 'swear' I would never reveal an opening to another agency. Obviously, Joe is protecting his source and his business. He asked for anyone interested to contact him off list, so, if you are looking for a position in the East, all it takes is an email to get more particulars. I don't understand what all the fuss is about. Most of you have spent more time and effort complaining about Joe's posting than it would have taken to respond and get the info you so desperately seek.

Saying where and what it is, could lead to a pre-emptive strike by the
soon-to-be disgruntled employee who for all we know has been exhibiting
quirky anti-social behavior and may require a security assisted exit

I'm not trying to ascertain the exact reason but room for speculation does
exist

I see no black and white

Forget it Tony.
I know Joe, he is genuine and actually got me a job once.
Then he should have known better.  Obviously he didn't provide the
information that candidates need to decide whether or not they feel they're
qualified.  Everyone's time here has been wasted by this "genuine" service
provider.  He's also obviously seen our exchanges here and has chosen not to
provide a minimal amount of information.  He's compounded his error rather
than fixing it - and even took the time to complain about his own business
problems in the process.

I don't get into this mode when people are sincerely in need of help.  I
have no problem when someone is really clueless but interested in getting an
education or finding some help.  I do get bent when people who are supposed
to be professional make every amateur mistake possible and don't take steps
to correct it.  With each day that goes by, this guy alienates himself from
more opportunities to do business in this market.  Why do I get bent about
this?  Because when this is over yet another end-user is going to have more
"proof" of how hard it is to find talent in this industry, and some good
technicians might remain jobless in a tough economy.  Everyone in this
market suffers through the incompetence of people like this and no one else
says anything about it.  I feel bad being an occasional loudmouth on stuff
like this in our community but to me it's worth it if any individual or
company benefits.
