(1,011 posts)41. What a nasty thing to say
The head hunter that was shopping my resume was exasperated. My qualification exactly matched what the prospective employer was looking for but they didnt like the fact that I did the work in the 1990s. Nothing about electronics or the C programming language has changed. My reps comment was they are searching for a purple squirrel and they dont get it that time equals money.
Dont feel obliged to comment unless you have an engineering background similar to mine, you are the same age, and have had no problems getting interviews.
