You’ve been contacted by a recruiter – music to your ears? Maybe…maybe not.
Sure, it’s flattering to get a call from a “recruiter,” but not all recruiters are created equal. You should learn everything you can about how they work.

- How successful and how long have they been working in your field?
- How do they collaborate with their candidates?
- Do they give you timely information and feedback? From interview preparation to post-interview feedback, we’ve got you covered at Job Seekers’ Edge.
