The Recruitment Game - Ploy No 1

Recuiter posts a job, waits for CVs and applications to roll in (some people cn spend at least an hour preparing their CV and writing their covering letters), then he or she calls the chosen few and tells them the following:
  •  that job advertised is filled
  • but they have another one they could send your cv to
  • or that they want to keep you cv on their database
.. for what??? 

Yes you guessed it - the job never existed.  They were trawling for CVs to use in future as fillers.

Recruiters beware - you shall be named and shamed.
