I tend to get a fair few of these from rather generic sounding recruitment companies, are they legit or just another scam farming personal details? The job descriptions read like something written by AI
There are a lot of recruitment scams on Whatsapp at the moment, haven't heard of email campaigns though.
I would say it depends on what it is you do and if there are a lack of your skill set(s) in the market. Just look at truck drivers during the pandemic, salaries north of £50k a year due to shortages, who’d have thought it!I'm not on Linkedin, so I can only assume I may be getting them via Indeed. I'm not actively looking but some of the offers that I get are tempting as the money is significantly more for the same job but I've always lived by the whole "if it's too good to be true, it probably is" mantra.
Have a word with someone like DR Newitt, Silven, Circle Select, you'll soon work out the going rate for your skills in food manufacturing. You're a service & maintenance engineer for catering equipment, right? A food factory would love you. You might get a nice surprise.I'm not on Linkedin, so I can only assume I may be getting them via Indeed.

It is different from catering stuff but I know that with your background you'd be snapped up in a food factor y. Transferable skills and all that. Especially if you are multi skilled with a 3 phase ticket.I think food production equipment is different again and not something we do, I have done it in the past because the boss is the type that doesn't know how to say no even when it's stuff we dont do and I've just had to wing it on the fly, but then he's a tw*t like that. Hence me being tempted.
Well, you'd know more about that, all I know is how hard it is to get engineers with any skills. It's not shortage of pay, either, they do very nicely thank you, especially with sh ift and OT.TBH it is the gas ticket is where value lies.
LinkedIn is the worst for spamming fairly junior level jobs requiring 10~20 years of experience.
I presume that these are sent before recruiting cheap foreign labour, to pretend that there are no locals.
I've been retired for 4yrs now, and still get job offers, from unknown parties. Can you believe Gas Safe, still ask for my registration feesI get notifications of job positions which I assume are from Linkedin. Just notifications. I ignore them because I've retired.
