To be honest I see no harm here. I've got recommendation from the friend of mine and registered... well... mostly for fun and to see what will happen. :^) I'm absolutely satisfied from my current position. But being open to opportunities I typically do not reject speaking with head hunters. And I come to interview only if I believe that it may work (i.e. that I may fit position and I may like it). ANd I'm typically pretty honest in phone convesrations before (probably because I don't like to waste my time). So, if someone is ready to pay some hundreds buchs to meet me and try to hire me - go ahead. ;P I also interviewed many people (and 70% of them were not even close to what they write in CV). But is there ANYTHING in our life that is not misused (by mistake or by purpose)? Regards Vladimir
