I really enjoyed this list. Having similar experiences is exactly what led me to do something about it and build a new approach to recruiting which we are in pre-launch mode: http://betacave.com

Here is how our platform addresses each of your concerns:

1. Phone calls are the 2nd step and not the 1st

All personal information is private. On betacave, recruiters can't get access to you unless you specifically allow it. I'm now telling recruiters that call me that if they want to connect, they'll have to go through betacave.

2. Read my CV

We will provide tools to hopefully enable recruiters (both 3rd party and companies) to see how a candidate who has expressed interest matches with what they are looking for. Although we hope to make easier, it is still up to recruiter to actually care and read about you.

3. Know what you are doing

Same as #2, we hope to make that easier for recruiter to know about you (if you want them to).

4. Don’t ask me to fool my customer

Not much we can help with that. That's just common sense.

5. Respect my requirements

Exactly! Our learning algorithm will learn about what your requirements are based on your input and some machine learning to only send you matches that fit your requirements.

I'd appreciate you check out betacave.com and let me know if you think it would help reduce the friction involved with dealing with recruiters.
