You're getting job interviews?
Rarely, but it happens.
But I can't shake off the feeling that in most cases recruiters completely misunderstood or misrepresented requirements for the position to get me to the technical interview stage. Like scheduling me for an interview with a team heavy with functional, big data processing while I barely have any purely functional experience.
Non-technical people doing recruitment work is a scam.
