[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What kind of recruiter does not continually work for the person who hired them pushing and pushing until they have a job? That sucks. Lazy.[/quote]

What makes you think OP is the only candidate the recruiter is working with?  Most recruiters work for the employers primarily.  They make you feel like they're working for you, but they get paid by the employer.  So they usually have more than one candidate that they are putting forward to the employer to fill a position.

My guess is the recruiter is talking to more than one candidate but trying to stay on good terms with OP because if OP might be the ideal candidate for a different position with a different employer.

At the end of the day, the recruiter's primary incentive is to find someone the employer will hire.  Employers are fickle.  So recruiters usually want to have a few possible candidates to present to the employer.  The recruiter gets paid when the position gets filled.

Never believe a recruiter is working for you (the person looking for a job).   You don't pay them.  They are working for the entity or person who pays them.  That's the organization or company looking to fill a position.[/quote]

I missed that the recruiter who didn't want to submit her resume for another job was a different recruiter. [/quote]
