Any good technical recruiters out there?
I have had some bad luck with recruiters who don't quite understand my roles. While they aren't very difficult to understand, I feel they aren't able to sell my skills to companies. I'm a Mechanical Engineer with ~4 years in the pipeline industry, but I haven't good recruiters keep in touch. Do I not have enough experience? Or is it just tough to find good recruiters

I have gotten interviews with recruiters and on My own, but I find 1/10 recruiters are either responsive to send my profile or clear I'm not a good fit fit. The rest can't answer their phone or reply to their email. I guess I'm
Just trying to find recruiters who know my skills And my value

You and everyone else are doing the same. They will call you if they get a bite.
I can't comment on Engineering but in IT, we now require basically over qualification in order to weed out number of applicants. Before we only need 1-2 skills, now we need 5-8 skills just to reduce the number of resumes to review.
So if you never got call from recruiters, you probably didn't make the cut or the fact there is nothing out there.
