I hate job recruiters.

They money comes from placing you in a job. It doesn't matter to them if you are good fit for the company or the company is a good fit for you.

I have requirements for jobs and as soon as a job recruiters see this they thank me for my time and I never hear from them again.

I'm not always nice in responding to them because of this. This morning I was exceptionally nice though. My email read:

I most definitely have the skills and experience to rock this position.

However, I am currently a stay at home mom to two young, special needs children. So unless they are willing to let me work from home and have a very flexible schedule, then I don't think it will work out.

Please let them know about me but I might have to be a last resort for them. The remote work and flexible schedule I will not budge on. My family comes first.

@alice_c good for you. And yes, most recruiters are weasels.
@alice_c there are very few that are worth it and those are hugely worth it. The rest are middleman agents jamming themselves into the process
@luisbg Sadly, I have yet to encounter one of the good ones.
