Cold Calling Recruiters

[danolgb]

Unfortunately, my company doesn't have clear policies for our receptionist to follow on cold calls. My old company was clear that if you didn't know the name of the person you wanted to talk to, you weren't patched through. Period. Unless you were a consumer or customer, then you were put through to the appropriate department

This is the other way around. They want us to hire their people. That's why I find it ironic that they're so rude.

i get calls from vendors who are nasty and threatening. Um... aren't you trying to sell me a product? Wouldn't you think a little politeness would be the way to go if you want me to actually buy the product???

Sheesh.
