I don't even bother with responding to recruiters any more unless they're an actual employee of the company they're recruiting for. Too much noise, too little signal. I wouldn't bother with using an agency as they're still the same big ol' ball of poor communications and lack of understanding what they're recruiting for as the ones who proactively reach out to potential candidates.

I agree with this. Sadly, many of the internal recruiters got let go in the last year, so I’ve been seeing fewer and fewer out there networking.
