this, especially points 1, 2 and 3, are precisely why the recruitment industry needs to be completely disrupted. most recruiters have absolutely no understanding of how to read developer skills and history, nor how to match them to a company's requirements.

i've worked with many, many recruiters over the years, and only a handful who weren't actively interfering with finding a good dev / company fit.

between that, automated resume filtering and linkedin's requirements to serve linkedin before serving anyone else, we're all living in a situation that would be hilariously ridiculous if it wasn't so sad.
