Re:Poll: Do you get spammed by tech recruiters? on Thursday December 01, 2011 @06:08PM (#3301851)
I'm still in school and only do internships/co-ops but I still get bombarded with calls and emails for fulltime. I have a canned response for the emails now.

I wish recruiters would spend a little more time looking at my resume to see that all my past jobs have intern in the title and that I don't graduate for a while. The 'Senior Hadoop Engineer' position doesn't really fit me...

Facebook was not first in social networking.
