Comment on Ask HN: How do you handle rude/aggressive recruiters?parent

Comments

Disregarding the entire content of his email while simultaneously nitpicking his email etiquette is never going to come across as "friendly".

As its written, you just seem like you're dismissive and passive aggressive. If you had actually responded to the email and then added an aside about his email subject it would have come across much differently.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll consider that in the future. It's probably naive to think drive-by-criticism can be constructive in this setting.
