Mistake

Presently, I am doing a search for a Regulatory Affairs Specialist. A decent resume crossed my desk about 10 days ago. I chatted with the candidate and noticed his most recent job was as a contractor at a local pharmaceutical firm. It just so happens that the recruiter at my client company recently worked for this firm. I asked the candidate if he ever sent his resume to my client and he claimed to have never even heard of them. My next call was to the client who told me he remembered this person, felt he was not a strong match, and the candidate has sent his resume to them about 5 times in the past month! This same candidate called again yesterday and pleaded ignorance to this. After pushing a bit, he told me he did keep sending it since no one called him and could not understand why I would not submit it weekly as well! Should this recruiter move elsewhere, I know one candidate he will never consider for a job opening.
