Oh, how I wish that were true of most recruiters. Instead I repeatedly see headhunters desperately send me every candidate they come across that even vaguely matches my parameters. This is why I never give an opening to a headhunter unless I have already trolled all the job boards, posted usenet ads, and given it a goos 3 weeks or so of internal efforts first. Nothing annoys me more than spending $20,000 on someone who did nothing more than run a search on monster.
