Don't do that, you'll prejudice a potential future lawsuit.

That and in addition also leaves OP open to a countersuit for libel. Then the emphasis is on the OP to prove that the recruiter did what OP claims they did and for the reasons OP claims (i.e. that it wasn't just utter incompetence).

I'm not saying the Op shouldn't sue. I'm saying the OP shouldn't post their name here.

out of curiosity, why?

The firm might settle if they don't want this published on the internet. In that case, they'd ask for a confidentiality agreement. If OP publishes their name, then he loses that leverage.

haha yes. of course the bastards would do this and then demand confidentiality. i guess it depends, then, on whether the OP would get greater satisfaction from publishing or from settling.
