Dear Recruitment Agency
Yes I post to mailing lists.

Was it Kelly Recruitment? I had to involve the Data Protection Commissioner in my situation…

I was recently made aware of an e-mail that was sent to a number of
candidates showing others’ contact e-mails. I completely agree with your
feelings about this and want to assure you that this is not our mode of
operation. Confidentiality is one of the most important aspects of our
business. I want to apologise for this mailing which should have been done as a blind mailing (only recipient e-mail visible). This was done in error and has been taken very seriously.
In the meantime, we have removed your information from our file as you
requested.
Once again, please accept my sincere apologies for this.

Anyway, I won’t link to you naming them, but I will link to me doing it.

From adam:
Michele “Headf*ck” Neylon eh?
From michele:
Heh
Well I did get an apology of sorts, so I’ll leave it at that. I just wonder why they’re getting so desperate that they have to resort to these kind of measures.
