One fairly recently cold emailed me 4 times in one day, the last email quite put out and angry that I hadn&#x27;t responded yet;  this was followed by numerous cajoling to censorious emails in the following days, and then a letter mailed to my home castigating me for not responding. And then more emails. He finally went away.<p>Then there is the current one - scheduling an interview without my say so, I demanded she cancel it immediately, yet I subsequently get a call from the company &quot;Roger, where are you&quot;. She didn&#x27;t cancel it. I told her to she was not to represent me in any way, to not contact me again. Yesterday, what shows up in my inbox? Demands to respond to her email with regards to a client with clear evidence that she is still shopping&#x2F;talking about me. All this against a backdrop of me telling them my dog is diagnosed with a brain tumor, my life is occupied with dealing with it, and just leave me alone (true story, not made up to make them go away). Holy fuck.<p>I had an absolutely great recruiter once, he spent hours talking to me, working to find a good fit (something I found myself ended up working), but don&#x27;t ask me how to find someone like that. Unfortunately his specialty is in an area (HFT) that I decided that I don&#x27;t want to participate in.
