Can you really afford to not follow up on leads?

I've been contacted by bogus companies before, but this one has an actual Website. And if they mumble, that's because they save $$ on hiring people to call other countries. ie. Gateway Computers using call centers in India, Bell Internet Service in El Salvador. etc..

I have no problem following up on leads. I need the meoney, and every day is about new experiences.

No?

They called my phone again, I answered, and I told them I am already fully employed.  She said it was to put my name in a pool because they are a hiring agent and they would give me another call if something came up.  But then she said, "Thank you, I will make a note of that you are already employed.  Have a good day, good-bye".  She was reading from a script, but it could have been possible employement.  I'm not sure, oh well.

This is a company called Ant & Bee, they go through pages where you have your resume like Kijiji or Workopolis etc. They contacted me about an I.T job, requested information, fill out questions.  Once I did, another person contacted me, asked for the same information.  Then a 3rd, then a 4th, there was never a job after this, this went on for a month.  I stopped answering and they STILL call 2-3 months later.  Big Scam, and all poor english speaking Paki people who mumble and have broken sentences.

Ant & bee sucks, they called me on Sunday at 9.00 pm. I'm sure it's a scam. They sent me some questions about my exp. (they can get it from my resume). Again, they have a govt. Project for 406 days. She called me back @ 9:30 pm and requesting me to complete the questions asap. I'm sure they are not calling from Canada, may be from Jamaica or Guyana.

I also had a message on my phone, Sunday night at 8:30.  I had to listen to the message 3 times and I still couldn't make out the name of the company.  The message asked if I was looking for pt or ft work, and they wanted my email info.  I only posted my resume on Monster.com, and it includes my email address.  I'm not going to call it back.

Interesting.  I just got a call too about a position, but they were very specific on the position.  Asked a lot pf pertinant questions regarding the role.  I can't believe they would be asking so many questions about a specific position if they were just looking for telemarketing personal.
