As you all know, I am fed up with recruiters playing keyword lottery , and I did post how recruiters should act, but most of them still continue playing keyword lottery. Sometimes being polite does not work anymore, so I decided to fight fire with fire.

As most of the recruitment spam is automated, I decided to send an auto-reply with my rate and a link to my resume, mark the message as read and auto-archive it.

I do not mind recruiters sending me interesting opportunities, but I am a little bit fed up with all those ‘interesting opportunities’ which align with my profile like a cat matches the profile of a coast guard.
