Out of the blue (more or less) I got an e-mail from a recruitment agency that had found my CV on one of those job portals where such things are posted.

The e-mail said I seemed qualified to several of the positions they were trying to fill and that they wanted me to fill out a boiler plate form and return it with an updated CV.

Now all this is fine. I've been let go from my current employer and need to find someone to feed me, ideally within a month or two, so I've been updating my profile on all those online places and I expect (and hope for!) a certain amount of queries like this one.

I found some of the questions on the form to be a bit odd, though, and wanted to share.


Now a lot of the other questions are about specific positions and can't really be answered in this context, but the whole thing leaves me a bit unimpressed with the company itself. I guess I'll just fill out more or less what they can already see from my résumé and put in a comment that I'll be more detailed when they give me something to be detailed about.
