So, since I don't know how to drive, and I haven't had luck with remote gigs, I tell them I would love to talk! If they have a job within a 30min walk from my apartment.

Most recruiters thank me for reading their message and say some canned response about how they'll keep me in mind if anything comes along.

One dude actually found one a year later and reached out. That was some awesome record-keeping on his part. It ended up not being a good fit, but I didn't think my message of highly specific requirements would ever actually get a lead.
