Couldn't understand the message left, something about a 6-month contract "If you are in the market" and left a string of numbers but I couldn't understand much. Seriously, if I'm looking for a job I'm not going to get one through mumblemouth.
Bad connection. I could barely hear the gentleman on the other end of the line.
He is with a consulting firm that wanted to discuss an Oracle position that we have open. We get lots of recruiting firms calling into our main line, that solicit their services. I don't transfer them to just anyone unless they give me an exact reason that they are calling and who they are calling for. If they call directly for a hiring manager, I always transfer to our internal recruiting department. These types of companies always try to bypass how we do internal recruiting to go straight to the hiring manager. They are very pushy and usually are expensive to use.
