Hi all,
This is my first post to the forum.
I need to ask information about something. Maybe
it'll be better i f i told my story first. About
two weeks ago, i had in my inbox e-mail that said
he need me to send him my updated CV, becuse he
wants to post my CV for a job position. He said
in the e-mail tahat he got my resume and contact
from my post at this site (rfcafe.com). The e-mail
that was from a 'man-power' supply agent called
'packardconsultants' or something. And then, in
two days, i had another e-mail said that i was offered
a job at TEXACO Ltd, UK.
I believed this
was a spam. But since he said that he got my contact
from rfcafe.com, i want to dig a little deeper.
So, I responsed the e-mail, try to hold them in
contact for sometimes, to find more info from the
web about their e-mail addresses, and also from
this site, with a hope that i will find something
that i can use to convince myself. But, i found
nothing.
What i need to ask you all, is that
anyone else had this kind of experience? So,
nothing is come so easy, isn't it? You have to try
hard to achieve something, right?

Greetings Rizal:
All resumes posted on RF
Cafe are submitted by the owners, and carry the
following notice at the top:
"This resume
is protected by copyright and may not be reproduced
in any form without the expressed consent of the
owner."
I do that specifically to provide
some protection against trolling for resumes to
re-post on other websites without the owner's permission.
It seems like maybe at least the people who contacted
you are asking for permission to use your resume,
so maybe they are honest enough to abide by the
copyright notice. All webpages are subject to being
"spidered" and ending up in a search engine result.
Yours must have already been registered and discovered
on a search, or the headhunter was familiar with
the Resumes & CVs page on RF Cafe.
If
you would like your resume (CV) removed, just let
me know and I'll pull it right away. Or, I could
leave it up with a "No Recruiters" notice.

Greetings Kirt,
Thank you for your concern
on my post. But, that is not what i mean. I know
that that guy had contact me and ask me for permission
to use my CV, maybe that's my fault to let him do
that. It's just too weird if you have no interview
and someone just give you a job in a flash, isn't
it? I just want to ask does anyone else has this
kind of experience? How can i see if someone is
really looking for my capabilities or just a spam?
Btw, the offer is quiet good for i'm just a lowly
BS.
Thank you again for the reply, please
cmiiw.
