Recruiters 10

For the New Year I present to you a classic example of Recruitment communication:

“Hi,
Hope you are doing great. We are having following requirement from client. If you are interested in this position, please send me the resume along with the following information.

Full Name:
Contact No. :
Email ID:
Work authorization Status:
Current Location:
Relocation:
Availability:
Rate/hr:
Title: Communications Consultant (Marketing, PLM)
Location: Brea, CA (near LA).
Duration: 3-6 months with definite extension"

This is typical of their pick-up line—urgent requirement for [function you most likely are unfamiliar with] in [location in same state but 500 miles away]; send info ASAP so I can fling it at the client, along with 47 others.

This does have one extra quirk: the duration. Doesn’t “definite extension” negate the “3-6 months”?

Well, I pity the fool expecting clarity out of recruiters.
