This morning, I received another mail (names obscured to protect the guilty):

I saw that you have declined the Email, however I was really impressed by your resume and that’s why I would like to speak with you anyway. This is about a really interesting career opportunity with a joint venture between XXXXX and XXXXX. They offer you as well to do your Microsoft Certifications.

Please tell me your number or give me a call.

Amazing! I had to waste 10 minutes of my day telling him to go away in the politest way I could think of (I find writing polite emails takes a lot longer than writing rude ones). On reflection I don’t know why I was polite.

(Hint to recruitment consultants: learn to write sentences that make sense so that you don’t look like undereducated idiots. Hint to the people who recruit recruitment consultants: Don’t hire undereducated idiots.)
