Literally the least productive and easiest career. I met with her last Monday for an interview. She says she found me a manufacturing position for $15.50. Great, send them my information. I don't hear anything back for a week, I have to check in with her like a toddler, would they be able to interview me this week? Sorry, that position is no longer available, but they do have a 2nd shift for $14 an hour. Great, I would be interested in that. The next day: sorry, but the company decided to pass on your resume. Anyone want to tell me how recruiters get paid to literally do nothing? I found the job myself on indeed for christsakes. Now I am literally begging people to get a $12 an hour assembly job, which I can more than do with my skills, and have done before. I am just furious.

I mean, if she offered you the same job, it'd be a solid move on her behalf. Why pay 15 bucks when you can pay 12?

Not to sound like a dick, but they normally disappear when either they or someone above them rejects you.  Not the most mature way to handle a situation like that, but when you deal with hundreds of people that they're not hiring, I doubt they care about taking all the time to deal with apologies.

Based off my interaction with them: they get paid to conduct interviews and do a shit ton of searching and traveling on the company's behalf.  So I mean, they have to know what the company is looking for, figure out where to look, and then get their feet in doors.  I know you're pissed, but I don't think their job is just blindly sending emails and passing a resume to their superior.
