Hello. Here are a couple of introductory notes.

Sometimes recruiters get a bad rap, but try to imagine what it's like to spend your time trying to separate the wheat from the chaff in dozens of resumes every day.

It can be a fun job, and a rewarding one.  After all, we get paid to help people find work.  That's pretty cool.

And then we find that "golden resume," and can't wait to get the person on the phone to discuss the opportunity, except for one tiny problem...

What recruiters want to do to you when you don't put your contact information on your resume.
