You only have to look at the way schools themselves attempt to directly advertise for FT's -
it's a joke!
Decent recruiters know how to recruit. They know what their client wants and they know what
the FT wants - for them it's just a matchmaking exercise.

Recruiters lie for a living. Good schools tell the truth and don't require recruiters.

If you are qualified, perhaps 20% of the resumes you send to good schools will result in a job offer.

If you are unqualified, you will receive no offers and then you can contact recruiters who will tell you how to lie while they lie to you about their clients and lie to their clients about you.

Matchmaking indeed. FTs that lack qualifications coached by professional contingency liars for employers that honest qualified teachers have already shunned.

It's no surprise that most of the contributors to this forum have found it necessary to use recruiters.
