Am I missing something? You posted that you wanted to be hired, some job placement firms reached out, referencing your post.

> Readers: please only email these addresses to discuss work opportunities.

Yes, you are missing the ground rules.

How is a hiring platform reaching out to you not related to work opportunities?

There is a not so thin line between "direct job offer" and "spam from job boards".

I'd be in favor of a more updated rule saying "direct job offer". But the post as it currently exists seems to not make that distinction.

How is an invitation to participate in a job board SaaS a "work opportunity"? Let's get real here; it's crystal clear.

It doesn't "work adjacent topics". It says "work opportunities". AKA, a JOB.
