All I can say to you all is, You are NOT the Lone Strangers.

And I get tired of talking to people that try to sound like they are a large company.... So I ask them why I can't find them on the internet and they stop contacting me.

I can't tell you how many of these I have gotten for work at the IRS. I have the clearance. And nothing ever happens.

I have gotten back a question by one: Do you have your badge and laptop?  If I did, I certainly wouldn't be talking to you!

I had another one ask if I had my clearance letter. I told them no, but I do have my ID info and Treasury can verify from that who I am and if I am cleared.   Never heard from them again.

Too many people battling to get a cut cause the pay to go down for the ones actually doing the work. This is an aberration of supply and demand.

And this is why I keep getting offers for less than what I was paid in 1990, adjusted for inflation.

It is not uncommon for me to get emails from offshore recruiters for

seems the match criteria that is being used is based on state of residence
instead of job experience.

That's marginally less imbecile than the matching process used by the
Belgistani jobcentres, who seem to match first on "developer", yes, just
"developer" and then on language, like, yes not kidding, Dutch or French,
which means that I'm invariably "one of the 125 best matched candidates"...
