I got a call from a recruiter last night saying that he was made aware of my exceptional talents as a Desktop Support person and he has been contracted to find someone such as myself. He has a policy of strick confidentiality and would therefore not tell me who referred me to him. He would say that he did not find my resume on the internet (probably because it is not posted), and that someone did pass my information on to him…including my phone number that my friends don’t even know.
I spoke to him for about an hour last night listening to his pitch, which did sound good. I decided to send him my resume and listen a little more in hopes to find out how he got my name more so than trying to find a different job.
How cautious should I be?
