Comment on Using Clouds for too long might have made you incompetent

The screening part sounds right, but I think these guys were doing it in-house.

That tracks with expectations. Many larger companies don’t use external recruiters at all, I’d guess the threshold is probably around 10,000 employees - more or less - above that they’ll have it vertically integrated in-house.
I’ve worked with a 100,000 employee company where HR will pre-screen candidates at job fair type interviews, just to file them away against potential future openings. They won’t usually task actual staff with doing interviews for openings that aren’t funded, though sometimes it feels like they are doing that - sending so many bad-fit candidates that it takes us 8-10 to find one that might possibly be a net-positive asset to the team.
