The Response to: "Recruiters: A Real Life Ethical Scenario"

A couple of weeks ago I wrote an article about an ethical situation that recruiters face. I asked for your opinion on what you would do. Here is the scenario again and the responses I've received so far:

Lorna Greer • Since you know the applicant, this could be a good opportunity to counsel them on application legibility and choosing the jobs which meet ones skills to apply for. This could be a service to them in the future, albeit their desperation possibly drove them to apply for something for which they lacked qualifications. Also, if the company wanted the individual to drop it at their location, the candidate could learn something about following directions. This could also be your opportunity to counsel the company about providing you with information about instructing you how they wish future late applications handled. Perhaps you should set some ground rules for future job fairs. The more I am thinking about it, perhaps these two deserve each other!!!

L. Susan Fischer • Ditto what Lorna said!

There were other responses that said they didn't want to be published. The response was split between the response above or toss the resume for not following directions.
Thanks!
