[quote=Anonymous]So, please help me understand if there's more to this message than I think.

I was contacted by a recruiter a while back about a job.  After talking, recruiter calls and says dep't head thought I'd be better for a higher level job (one I didn't even know existed).  Then that lead went cold (no word for a while…followed by a "we went in a different direction" email).  Fine.  In that email, recruiter said, I'm sure you wouldn't be interested in the "original" job b/c the salary is too low (he listed salary and it was too low).  Again, fine.  Then, out of the blue, recruiter reaches out to thank me for my "thank you" note (which I sent after our last call)…and says "do you know someone who might be interested in the "original" job.

I'm probably reading into this too much…but is this recruiter trying to open the door a bit for more discussions?  Generally, in my experience, when its a "no" you don't hear anything more.  Otherwise, why reach out to me for other candidates, right?

I could be off base, but trying to understand. [/quote]
