Just this week, I had a recruiter tell me that they won't tell me the end client, until after the interview happens. They are expecting candidates to interview with them, without telling them who they would be working for (also, pay is shit).
Another recruiter sends a ridiculous legal document that I am supposed to sign (it was a long, scary document, I didn't understand most of it), before even revealing who they are hiring for. Yet another recruiter wanted to edit my resume and lie, before they'd proceed with the process.
Those are just a few examples. In case you are wondering if these are for high level positions, they are not. These are run of the mill, ordinary developer jobs.
I do not want to deal with recruiters, at all, ever. Even a 5 min phone call with these upstanding people is enough to ruin one's day.
So yeah, I'd pay for this "privilege"
