What's up with unresponsive recruiters after they contacted you first??
Why do recruiters even bother asking for your availability for a phone interview if they don't plan on replying to you after??
You are a commodity to them. They don't care about you except to the extent that you are a means to a pay check.
What SSits said.
They make a commission check out of you from placing you and if the place hires you.
But this isn't an agency recruiter, it's a campus recruiter for the firm that I applied to. What's the deal!? Did the interviews get pushed back and now she's not allowed to reply to me for legal reasons?
Recruiters contact me, but never respond back (Originally Posted: 06/25/2013)
So recently I have been getting calls from a few recruiters regarding some positions open at BBs and some PE firms. They contact me saying they saw my resume and that I am a good fit. They tell me alittle about the position and the bank/firm. They ask if I would be interested in getting more information. They email me some details and I respond back by saying I am interested. After that I get nothing. It just falls off a cliff. Some recruiters are staying in touch, but atleast half don't get back to me. Normally, I wouldn't care, but some of the opportunities seem pretty good, and pretty irritating when they reach out to me first. Any of you guys have this problem?
I've encountered the same situation. I think oftentimes the recruiter has a broad mandate when trying to fill a position and will reach out to a bunch of different people from different groups, banks, backgrounds, schools, etc. Especially the case when they're trying to fill IB analyst positions at BB banks or associate positions at generalist PE firms. You have to consider that they are emailing prospective candidates from all types of banks (BB, MM, boutique, etc.), consulting firms (MBB through the little guys), and potentially also people in industry.
You have to tell them what they want to here plus unique skills that you can bring to the role. Search the interview Q & As on this site. Also be prepared to answer in detail why you want to work there. Do your research on the company and industry ahead of time. Come up with potential answers to interview questions before they call you.
Do you know my buddy Aaron Burr?
Probably better not to ask last I heard the relationship is pretty strained.
I guess they send your resume to the hiring mangers and if the feedback is negative, they don't spend any more time on you.
