Lies that Recruiters Tell the Candidates

4. Interested but looking for other applicants: If you need some other information from the applicant in order to finalize the decision. Ask him/her to directly furnish you with the details. If the applicant comes to know that there is a good opportunity of bagging the offer, by providing the details mentioned by you. He/she is sure to render that information to you. Never hesitate to directly tell the candidate what are your requirements for the position.

5. Reference by a mutual contact: It is very important for the recruiters to tell the candidate directly and honestly how they got the information to contact that applicant. As it proves to be quite helpful for the candidates to learn what made them more visible in front of the recruiters. This is sure to benefit the hiring programs later.
