My recruiter was blunt and very honest with me about everything, a little harsher then I was used too but I appreciated everything he had to say. He did make sure I knew alot about the trades I chose etc.
My husband told me his recruiter kept trying to get him in for something he didn't want. After denying 3 offers and telling him the one he wanted would be a 6 month wait or more, he said I'll wait then. He got a call 3 days later offering him his first choice.
I guess its all who you speak with. I had a good experience.
