Why Developers Hate Recruiters

Every now and then I post a resume on the big job boards to see what kind of crap the people I recruit have to put up with so I know why they have generally lost that loving feeling toward recruiters. Last night I posted one. The responses make me question whether or not I am in the right industry.

I can't help but ask myself how the hell I chose to work in a profession where my customers and the people I interact with are going to be judged by the behavior of my peers. This reminds me of why so many developers get angry at recruiters. If nothing else, it reminds me why I have not paid for a job board account since 2007.

Here is a link to my blog post with some selected emails from recruiters who responded on Dice, Monster and CareerBuilder:
