Spamming agencies right back

[MikeP]

Just a (I suspect really dumb) thought:

My sarky side is always tempted to apply for all these ridiculously inappropriate jobs I get mailed, just to make the point clear that the recruiter is completely incompetent. I would imagine some would be inept enough to forward my CV, hopefully get a bad rep and see their client base diminish.

I get mailed about all sorts from Telecoms Engineer, to "Sandpit Consultant" (No joke!) - a recent gem found it's way to me stating "Experience with Steam, Filling Machine and Freeze Dryer is desired"

Any thoughts? Anyone done it just for a laugh?

LOL - Sandpit consultant. My daughter (age 1) could do that - I might forward her CV. She should be paying her way by now anyway....

I have method on how to do this. Its oh so devious, I don't want to post in case any agencies get wind of it. Actually I don't want to get into trouble either.

Take all the fun out of that one, why don't you! That's like waving a lolly at a kid but saying they can't have it.

[BradNeedsYourHelp]

well, I can PM you my idea, if you like.

Just had one clown from one of the S3 lot email me a job for a permie Mechanical Engineer.

Quite how he arrived at that is beyond my comprehension...

Look again at the photos of those agents on their site
