Hi David,
I came across your profile online and wanted to reach out about Development
Opportunities here at Groupon. The company is growing, and we're always
looking for folks with solid skills that can make positive contribution to
our continued success. Any chance you'd be open to a quick conversation
about opportunities, or for any possible networking potential? If so, let me
know when you're free and we can set up a time to chat. Also, if you are
interested, it would be great if you could forward a current resume over
that I can take a look at. I look forward to hearing back from you! Please
let me know if you have any questions.
Cheers,
<Yet Another Clueless Tech Recruiter>

I don't know about you guys but I've seen recruiters on the rampage for Rails developers lately, so the fact that someone didn't do their homework is not surprising

I also heard that he is looking for a Dart programmer who can write a "Hello JavaScript" script in more than 17000 lines of Javascript code. Many that would be an option. What do you think @dhh?
