Technical recruitment firms play a vital role in providing quality engineering and technology specialists to various organizations. These firms have a very good relationship with all the engineering, computer science, electrical, electronics and information technology companies in the region. Technical recruitment firms usually receive thousands of CVs for a limited number of technical job openings across various technical sectors. These technical firms then start the process of screening the profiles received. They shortlist the profiles that will be sent to the company for face to face discussions. They have various criteria to shortlist the profiles received. First and the foremost they scrutinize the number of years of relevant technical experience the candidate has. Additionally they will look for certain key words in the profile based on which the initial level screening will happen. Sometimes they make use of CV screening software that filter resumes with certain key words. Profiles without those key words will be filtered out and will not be taken forward in the technical interview process. Once they select the profile with the required key words, they ask the candidates to come and meet them. When the candidate comes to the technical recruitment firm, the consultants working in the firm will check whether the person who has come is really the correct candidate by asking some technical questions. They want to make sure that the candidate they are sending to the organization to attend the interview are the genuine deal, and have the experience and knowledge that the candidate suggests. If they are send candidates without actually cross-checking, then the technical recruiting firm's reputation will be at stake. From the perspective of the person seeking a technical job opening, they have to consider even the initial screening with the job recruitment firm a real interview, take it seriously, and not provide a casual image to the technical recruiting firms. Also the person seeking the technical position needs to show some interest regarding the technical aspects related to the technical position. This way the recruitment firm will get a feeling that the person is really interested in the area in which they are working. Technical recruiters may contact unsuccessful candidates months and even years later, if they find a position that they think will be suitable. If you no longer want to be contacted by the technical recruiter, then you should inform them that you no longer wish to be on their records.
