Discussion on: 8 things I hate in recruitment letters [add yours, it's kind of research]

I'm not in the market these days. Back in the days of yore when I was amenable to a new position, there was one thing that irked me more than anything else.

My biggest thing I hate in recruitment letters is when I get one that looks intriguing from a company I'm interested in, and I get all excited about the opportunity...

...then I read that I would have to relocate.

So I contact the HR recruiter, and indeed, required to relocate. So I graciously decline.

Subsequently, about once a year, I get another email for same-or-similar position from said company. Still with the requirement to relocate. From the same HR recruiter.

Sigh.
