If they disclose who they are hiring for then what's to stop a candidate applying to the company directly? Cuts out the recruiter and they lose their fee. I've known this has happened to a few friends when they've dealt with recruiters who were stupid enough to disclose this in the first e-mail.
- Peroni 15y agoBingo. It's not the only problem though. There is a surprisingly large number of recruiters posing as developers in order to find out who the competition is recruiting for, your reason, coupled with this is the sole reason why recruiters never disclose their client.
- comm_it 15y agoWow, I didn't know this! Cheeky buggers :)
- tocomment 15y agoJust do a search for the text in the email and the real company's job posting will come up.
