hum, just last week he was trying to create a page on job4dev to post "listings" with no information whatsoever about any of the actual companies that were hiring. Usually our moderation system is enough to stop recruiters to add vacuous pages to the wiki. But he went ahead and start spamming the comment pages anyway.

Sometimes I wonder if it would be possible to add to job4dev a service that would turn recruiters into a value-add into the recruiting space. But that kind of thing just goes to show that they just want to work as middlemen and really need to be cut out.




Did you ever consider the possibility that "Beau" is not actually a recruiter, but rather a mid-level troll with a creative cover story?


What, like Jon Harrop?


Or that Beau is a chatbot? I would not be surprised if the first few stages in the recruiter/recruitee process could be automated by some email scripts!
