Recruiter and Resume Bank Hall Of Shame

Recruiters who send your resume to clients without your permission. Resume banks who, violating ethical business practices and copyright law, grab your resume off the net and stuff it in their database without so much as a by-your-leave. These are some of the shameful behaviors we encounter in today's job market. This page exists to point out the guilty parties and accord them a small fraction of the shame they deserve. (Computer professionals - know someone who belongs here? Drop me a line.)

Resume grabbers: If I get a note from someone saying "I found your resume in the XYZ resume database", and I didn't send one to the XYZ database, the XYZ database ends up here. (You'd like to use my resume? Great. Ask. Unauthorized distribution or publication of a resume is a commercial violation of copyright and should not be tolerated.)

Recruiters, I suggest you avoid these unethical companies:
