And researchers may be systematically underestimating risks associated with alcohol use. They found that at the level of individual use, alcohol was the deadliest substance, followed by heroin and cocaine.

I've had this situation happen to me and I did get a job description... which had been carefully edited by the recruiter. Once the client and I got in the same room we shared looks of disgust at their actions and cut the interview short. I emailed the owner of the agency who responded defensively so I just added their domain to my spam filter. These recruiter agencies give 0 fucks about the workers or even the clients. They have seats to put butts in and thats where their responsibility and proactiveness ends.
