Noticeable degradation in FAANG recruiters?
Last couple of months I've been getting absolutely bombarded by recruiters from Amazon, Google , and Facebook. I didn't mind at first because it's always nice to compile a list of recruiters you can directly hit when needed. But lately the interactions have been low quality, as bad as the days when I would get 100 emails a day from body shops when I updated DICE back in the day.
Firstly why are they contacting people so aggressively if there are so many people reaching out to them, many of which can't get an interview. Second what's the point of spamming someone who told you repeatedly they will contact you when they are ready. Thirdly, I finally do contact some of them back.....and never hear back. At one point in time FAANG recruiters, contractors or not, were head and shoulders better than other recruiters. From communication, to interview prep and negotiating. Now they seem as bad as the most swarmy 3rd party recruiters
I have a called scheduled with one next week, we never actually had a conversation but they reached out 3+ times saying how I never replied so I just set something up on their calendar.....and I fully expect them to no call/no show. Despite them harassing me for months now
