One of the most prickly bones of contention in the subtle dance between agency recruiters and in-house recruiters is the CV float. For those of you unaware, or who use a different term, a CV float is the act of a recruiter e-mailing in a CV of a candidate to a company that the recruiter thinks that company might be interested in. The recruiter does not have an actual vacancy or requisition on with that client (sending a CV in those instances is called…err…Recruitment).

My first proper job after Uni was as a management trainee with a large US car rental company Enterprise Rent-A-Car. A dominant force in the US market, they had set their sights set on European expansion and I was part of a vanguard of “J-1 Visa” workers from the Old World sent into the heat of California’s six-lane super highways and omnipresent car dealerships that formed the backbone of ERAC’s customer base.

My colleague Reza has 11, George has the slightly larger number of 473, while Laura has a staggering 26,532… It’s not that we all actively decided not open and to ignore these unread emails, the truth is we were probably all busy when they arrived on our inboxes. By the time we had a chance to look at them, 10 new emails had arrived in our inboxes, pushing those other emails further down and out of sight.
