Recruiter-Rater

I keep seeing ads by TopEchelon everywhere.

No contact info, no address, just send you resume online. So I cheched them out. They are an anonymous middleman between the worker and some other brokers who have the job. The applicant doesn't even know who has his resume.

Rule Number One: Never lose track of who has your resume, and never let it move from one hand to another without your prior permission and knowledge of exactly who is getting it and for what purpose.

I was contacted by Mike Govoni. When I spoke with him, he didn't really have anything other than an entry-level $19k job that was on the other side of the country. He then proceeded to quiz me in a very pushy way about if my former employers were hiring. He asked numerous times in a "So, there aren't any openings there?" type of way.

I'm unable to find a lot of information about this company. Website links in various search engines point to a job magazine of sorts, and the address looks to be an empty lot on most mapping programs. Has anyone dealt with this company?

I am seeking an agency or recruiter who is interested in chipping in for Monster, HotJobs and/or Dice or other resources. Or who currently owns these databases and is open to charging me for access to them at certain times of day. Currently, I work for/with an agency, as an independent contractor. I am seeking to strike out on my own. I would be open to working with another recruiter in a full fledged partnership, or merely in a limited alliance where we can pool resources. I am entrepeunerial, open-minded, ambitious and ethical and would be glad to furnish any interested parties with character and/or professional references.
