2+ recruiters 2+ positions same company QUANT
Hey guys,
I know recruiters place a lot of emphasis on asking wether I had been introduced to a company in the past 6 months. And if you say yes they will not put you forward on another role.
Now I think this is a bit unfair because: 1) recruiters generally don’t know what they are doing. They might submit your cv even if you don’t satisfy the requirements. Sometimes they don’t even know the pm or the role. they are fishing at your expense 2) each recruiter might not have all mandates open at the company 3) for MMs in particular I think different pods and areas of the business are very siloed and interviewing with one should not preclude you from interviewing with another 4) openings at the same company in different areas of the business happen with frequency much higher than every 6 months
Given the above, while applying I would just not care about their 6 months clause and if I get a job at a different pod with a different recruiter after a month I’ll just let the recruiters fight for the money.
Do you guys agree? Have you had similar?

Don’t hate the player, hate the game.
I don’t blame the recruiter. Why would they want to do all of this work only for another recruiter to get $50k-$100k for the work he did to place you? The recruiters know the rules setup by firms so they are doing their job within those parameters.
For this very reason, don’t work with multiple recruiters. Only switch recruiters after several months of no success. Plus some recruiters are shady as hell. I’ve heard horror stories of recruiters selling out job seekers to their current/future employer if they find out you’re going to take a different job pushed by another recruiter.
