So I'm sitting here at the office minding my own business, when my desk phone rings.
My desk phone rarely rings, and when it does, it's generally an internal call.
I don't recognize the number, and it's not an internal call, so I just let it ring.
The funny thing here is I don't know the passkey to even get into the phone to check voicemail, nor do I really know my own extension (I think I have it written down somewhere...)
Anyway, so it turns out a technical recruiter found me on LinkedIn, and called my work number.
I don't have a resume on LinkedIn with my cell on it (for obvious reasons). But LinkedIn does have a feature where you can "connect" with someone.
I know this was a tech recruiter because I checked LinkedIn, and she'd left me a message there, complete with the number that just called...
I'm not actively looking for new employment right now...so the call came as a surprise.
