I am not torn on this at all. You are 100% right. If you send a link like this as a reply, it's super rude and unnecessary. I feel super grateful to be in a position where jobs hunt me instead of the typical bs in every other field of having to send 100 CVS out and to never hear back from anyone or to hear back half a year later.

Author here.

Well, in my experience the people asking me if I am interested are rather rude. I politely explain to them that I am not interested and a lot of follow-up questions come flying in. Why is that?

That is why created the page, I answer now:

> Thank you very much for your message.

> I am not interested, before you answer me again please have a look at https://no-thank-you.de/.

> Best, <name>

Why even answer? I always say : no answer on the internet is a no.

And then they continue, “Well do you know someone? We pay a $500 referral fee if you give me their name and we end up placing them.”
