I received a call today from a temp agency that specializes in medical staff placement. She called and said she received my resume and wanted to know the salary I was looking for and then asked me when I left my last job. I told her I left the last day of May 05.

She said, "Oh, well, umm, our clients prefer a placement of someone who has been in the workforce with in the last 6 months". I said that is fine, but if you reviewed my resume then you would have know I have not been employed since May of 05. She appologized and we hung up.

I am a little pissed because she should have reviewed the resume thouroughly before calling and why the hell would someone submit their resume to a temo agency? For a job right? Most people sumbit because they need employement. Not to be told they needed to have a job with in the last six months. They act as if I have been out of work for years.
I have done this for 10 years, I doubt seriously that the industry has changed that dramatically where I wouldnt know what I was doing or what was going on.
