This is what was sent, from a professional recruiter:

Hi - (CandidateName),

You have a VERY impressive background in (Change Skill Set). I'd love to get an idea of your current situation to see what you might be looking for in your next career move.

I have an opportunity with (Change Client Name) in (City, State) I think you'd be a great fit for. They are looking for an (Position Title) that would be responsible for implementing (Skill Set) in a Selenium Automation framework environment. The role would be a (Direct or C2H) opportunity with Salary + Benefits.

Please give me a call or let me know as soon as possible if you would be interested in exploring further!

Thanks in Advance,


I'm wondering what I could do to have some fun with this Big Grin

Those types of recruiters are expected to send out several dozen messages for each job posting, be interviewing at least 15-20 candidates a day, and also be screening and determining who to reach out to.

Trying to juggle all three leads to a misfire every now and then. I’d respond with a nice message acknowledging the mistake, and inquiring for more info if you might be in the job market.

Is there something in the email that tells you that this is a "nigerian prince" scam?

If the email is coming from a legit company and you're not interested, tell them. If you are, tell them.

I had a recruiter contact me last week asking if I wanted to lead a DevOps implementation. I politely told him my background didn't fit that profile but to keep me in mind for other opportunities.

Why do you want to fuck with someone trying to do their job?
