I am now up to literally 12 unsolicited phone calls from at least 3 different people from the most cluelessly aggressive headhunter firm in the world: TopTech Ventures. I am purposefully not linking to their web site as I don't want to give any of this blog's Google juice to them.
How have you annoyed me? Let me count the ways:
How have you annoyed me? Let me count the ways:
- Unsolicited calls. If you're going to reach out to me, start with an email.
- Calls from multiple people at the same firm. Get your act together and have one single point of contact.
- Caller ID appears from ever-changing 800 numbers, or worse as Blocked. This makes you look like a shady org that's trying to hide something.
- Not getting the hint. When I don't respond to the first 2 or 3 voice messages, stop calling and leaving them.
- Not getting the hint, part 2. When I forward you the link to my initial rant on your bad behavior, don't take that as a sign to re-double your efforts to woo me. It's over. You lost. Move on.
