The Art of Being Ambiguous While Recruiting
User experience professionals seem to be in fairly good demand it appears. I only say this due to the amount of recruiter calls I receive. Typically 1 every other day. Lately though they have really stepped it up–calling my mobile phone, calling my office phone (by way of dialing the company switchboard), and emailing me.
Everyone gets the call saying that a friend or colleague had referred them and by the way they want to remain anonymous. But recently I got a call that topped that them all simply by being as ambiguous as possible.
