<i>&quot;I would like to talk to you. Please let me know your availability to connect next week.&quot;</i><p>This message is rather rude: he&#x27;s assuming that you <i>are</i> going to want to talk to him, and that you&#x27;re going to do it on <i>his</i> schedule (&quot;next week&quot;). I might grudgingly tolerate that kind of demand from my manager, but not from some random recruiting-spammer.<p>Someone who had respect for you would at least say something like: &quot;If you&#x27;re interested in discussing this opportunity, please let me know what would be a good time for you.&quot;<p>Then again, his choice of language might be a carefully calibrated strategy to recruit people who aren&#x27;t averse to being pushed around.

&quot;[...] radical openness and honesty [...]&quot;<p>Dalio&#x27;s principles certainly make for a uniquely branded culture in the hedge fund industry.

While the approach from the recruiter is demonstrably bad, I find the shaming to be in as much poor taste. Especially the part where you state the recruiter hates their job and is just in it for the money. Why sprinkle that in without possibly knowing how they feel or why they do their job?
