1. Please read through my CV/profile/the brief I have given you properly before getting in touch; it makes me doubt how professional you are when you keep contacting me about irrelevant roles or don’t know about my past experience/current role/salary level.

2.It’s fine to ask me about candidate tips for roles that are not relevant for me, but why not send me an email instead – seeing as most of the contact details you are asking for will be saved on the mobile you are calling me on, so I cannot look them up while talking to you

3.Please don’t call from an undisclosed number – the chance of me answering the call is a lot higher if I know who’s calling, and it is a lot easier to return the phonecall if I have already got the number on my mobile

4.Please do not leave me along and warbled answer phone message

No, I don’t enjoy having to replay the message several time to try and suss out your name and phone number

Top tip: Get yourself an email SMS system, where you can easily send me a message with all the relevant information and a telephone number…increases the chance of me getting back to you promptly.

5.As much as I would like to meet up with everyone to increase my chances of finding the perfect role; please do realise that I am NOT just working with you…and the chances of me meeting you at daytime while in a job are pretty slim unless you have a relevant role right now…

I would also like to add that I have had the opportunity to work with some really good, enthusiastic and professional recruiters – and they mostly never display any of the above behaviours…I take my hat off to all of you!

This time Bunny decided on the Moisture Maniac -  and of course loving the 2 for £20 offer for the massive bottles with practical pumps…

Bunny likes Google’s way of marking England’s national day :)

(as most English people don’t really celebrate it at all)

twitter1Oh well, that’s Tweety and my rant is about Twitter. No, Bunny will not be on Twitter and no, I don’t like it. I agree with the tag “poor man’s email”…I prefer context, depth and photos – and if anyone wants to know what I am doing right now there is always email , SMS – and the opportunity to call me ;)
