While I appreciate that you are looking for developers, the spamming has got to stop. Sending generic email for permanent positions, to a group of contractors is pretty silly if not rude.
Some things about me you should know, as a recruiter:
1. I do contract consulting, and I'm not looking for a permanent job.
2. Relocating to another city is not in the cards...unless it's an absolutely amazing job, and even then it's unlikely. I'm based in San Francisco.
3. Yes, that's my hourly rate. Do remember that I pay for all of my own overhead, equipment, materials, etc.
Please don't bother, if the job doesn't fit this bare minimum.

With all due respect to the <0.1% of recruiters who are sincere, they should be looked at as competitors. It's just an anomaly that recently there really is more work than they can find people to do. Normally, they're competing for the same work as us.
Is there such as thing as a "permanent" position anyway?
is there such a thing as permanent position? hahaha...it all comes down to which tax documents are used, I guess. In the book-keeping sense.
To clarify, then...I work as a free agent, and set my own schedule (within reason). Isn't that why most of us "independent consultants" work this way?
