In the tech world, there are armies of Indian cold-calling 'recruiters' we call 'bottom-feeders' that call you one after another trying to get you for low-ball money to work on contract.
Some of them have begun using fake names so that you answer their emails... I always prefer working with an American recruiter. Perhaps for that reason, many of them have begun using these fake names, like Mike Livingston or Jessica Green...
Many of the Indians have zero ethical standards, in my experience; however I worked with some very fine Indian folks at IBM.
One called me and we agreed upon an hourly rate. He then called me back and said that the client has just reduced the rate by $10.00 per hour. I told him no thanks and hung up. He immediately called me back and said okay to the first rate.
A close friend of mine had agreed to a job with TCS through a third party. He was to start work on a Monday. On Friday, the recruiter called him and said that they can only pay him $10,000.00 per year less.
He declined and left them in the lurch - had another job lined up and was playing them both against one another.
Another told me that he had my information and was going to submit me to a position at a major New York Bank - when I specifically demanded that he not do so as to be double submitted by two or more agencies gets your candidature cancelled! He angrily told me that he was submitting me anyway. I didn't get a call. ...and they wonder why people prefer working with Americans.
