Unsolicited call. Pushy recruitment agency.

Blocking their numbers is the only way to get rid of these spammers.

Calls several times a day saying that my CV matches an incredible job opportunity and they just need my last three managers names to put me forward. Simple questions regarding the "job on offer" clearly shows that there is no job on offer and they are just fishing for new contacts. This is an appalling practice, lying to candidates about opportunities shows how little respect these people have.

Harassing recruitment agency constantly calling. Doesn't seem to use email, so they're stuck in the 70s or something. I've now barred this number with 14258.

Called me today unexpectedly, called ID showing "Truro" when I answered it was straight onto are you still looking for a job, when I told them I've recently accepted a position they just hung up straight away. They call themselves "Tank Recruitment" but their telephone manners are appaling. If someone informs them they are no longer looking for a position there is no need to terminate the call as they did, bunch of cowboys, the guy who I was speaking to didn't even bother to introduce himself or the company, let alone what position they had "available" ended up having to do a reverse search on Google and came straight to Tank Recruitment or as it was previously known "Tank IT"...

Dodgy recruitment agency that will call candidates and lie to them by saying they have a job vacancy that they have matched you for and ask for reference contact details immediately but in reality all they want these for is contacts for new business. Avoid like the plague.

Have had trouble with this number calling me for 2 years now. They completely waste time and pile excuses from their email doesn't work to they have to call as my cv is on the internet. These people should be forced to follow the regulations of telemarketing companies as they currently do not! After re-assurance from them that I would not be contacted again, they still call a year later.

Endless calls. You’d think they would take the hint that I never answer. They’re relentless. They are reportedly a recruitment company but they feel more like spammers.

If you any kind of tech company this bunch will relentlessly call you asking if you are recruiting. Don't bother giving them the time of day.
