I think jrmehle had the best response:

  Recruiter: How many years of Rails experience do you have?

  DHH: ALL OF THEM

Haha I feel like recruiters do no research about the people they try to contact. Same thing keeps happening to @wycats.

At my previous gig, I had recruiters from MY OWN COMPANY contact me with "opportunities". I moved on shortly after that.

In my experience, these recruiters just grep for words like "Ruby" and "Javascript" and blindly send out form letters.

I will say though, when I was looking for a job, a recruiter helped me set up quite a few interviews in a short period, and I ended up being placed somewhere awesome.

I've had pretty poor luck with folks who do out-sourced recruiting, but I recently got headhunted by an in-house recruiter and ended up taking the job and loving it.

The best meme: "I don't always hire Rails devs, but when I do, I hire the creator" LOL! https://gist.github.com/1285068#gistcomment-56381
