This is a portion of an email I received a week or so ago. Also got one from Boeing last month.
I got laid off back in Feb, so had started a job search when these started popping up.
Not sure if it's the same firm, but this email did come from someone with a .uk email address. I'm guessing these are headhunters for Boeing, they get paid when they produce a qualified applicant. As most also will give you a fee if you can point them to someone that signs a contract.
