Inflated titles

I got an e-mail solicitation from a recruiter asking me to look at his site. Felt like spam, so I didn't click on anything. That said, here's his claimed job title:

Senior Recruiter Sorcerer

If I get laid off and really need help, this guy can probably cast some spells and hook me up with a sweet gig assuming I go find some magic ring or something.

    No longer work in IT. Play around with stuff sometimes still and fix stuff for friends and relatives.

    Either they're intending something along the lines of "sourcing" or they're totally going for the Sorcerer > Wizard thing as its 1 higher!

    I work with quite a few creative types, and these titles are everywhere in the creative freelance world. "The Man", "Graphics Guru", etc. They work well there... IT? Not so much.

    Yeah, but I was kinda disappointed when the picture of him didn't include a socerer's hat and maybe a staff of some sort. If you are going to conjur some title up you might as well run with it!
