What is all this garbage? It's the response one of our alert readers forwarded to us when they applied for a job. They sent a response through the monster.com website with no attachments; just the standard monster.com resume response. This is the message that bounced back. Here at jobfairy.com, we think the recruiting company's filters are set just a tad high. I wonder if the recruiter ever stopped to think, "Hey, I'm not really getting a whole lot of responses to my ad here"?
