This is half venting, half alerting those going through any recruiting processes -
As has been discussed previously on WSO, Pinpoint Partners is a joke of a firm that sends almost nothing but spam, and doesn't respond to any emails asking to be removed from their list. They continue to spam me - almost daily - for totally irrelevant job openings despite my replying that I have no interest in going back to IB or no interest in X geography. They will even send me the same posting 3-5 times in the span of 2-3 weeks. Surprisingly, they seem to occasionally represent legit firms. How they manage to do this I have no idea.
Has anyone had any success getting them to stop spamming them? Incredibly unprofessional. I wouldn't hire them if I were looking for candidates and they were free. The way they spam everyone on their lists just reflects poorly on the firms hiring them.
Yeah Pinpoint is the only firm that never takes my preferences seriously. I think part of the problem is they always have like 5 different people from the firm reaching out. Don't know how many times I've told them U.S. opps only and no lateral positions, period.
They don't actually represent these firms, they just learn of the opening and try to get your res in the pile. They stopped emailing me after I told them to stop a few times, but can't you just have your spam filter flag their emails?
You're a lucky man. I keep telling them to stop emailing me. I've even go so far as to message the recruiters on LinkedIn, but keep getting irrelevant reqs from them.
I was honestly a little disappointed. I was low key hoping they'd be pushy so I had an excuse to bring up their abysmal reputation. Needed to blow off some steam that day...
