There exists a tremendous lack of understanding between both candidates and recruiters regarding the job application and interview process. Candidates are frustrated by bad outreach emails (we'll just say SPAM) from recruiters. Recruiters shake their heads in disbelief at the constant mistakes candidates make, sabotaging their own job search efforts.

We'll pull examples of #recruiterfail scenarios, as well as #candidatefail examples in an attempt to break down the barriers between cadndiates and recruiters in a fun and comfortable way. We'll provide you with a few tips on how to deal with recruiters, but also considerations for how you may want to change the way you present yourself (online, correspondence, and in-person) during the process.
