[Discuss] Multiple submissions of resume by recruiters and hired.com



Hi,

A friend has suggested that I try hired.com to find a new position.  I 
looked into it and wondered how well I could control the process of 
submitting my resume to prevent what I have always heard is the kiss of 
death: two or more recruiters submitting your resume to the same client.

My friend assured me that I would be able to control the dissemination 
of my resume by hired.com; and besides, given the state of the market, 
multiple submissions are common and handled by giving the commission (if 
hired) to the first one to submit.

Is this really true?  And has anyone had experience with hired.com?
