How do I respond to Playco?

Question

A recruiter from Playco reached out about a Product Engineering role. This skeezed me out because:

I haven’t been an Eng in some time (TPM)
that’s obvious from my LI profile
Reviews suggest this place is a shitshow
they used ‘unicorn’ in the email

What is the deal with this place? It seems like it has changed names a bunch of times and has a high churn rate.

Should I even bother responding?

ive also never heard of Playco... but I have noticed random messages from recruiters on linkedin for positions I am clearly unqualified for. Might be they are just spraying the message to a ton of people

Do you think it'd be worth your time to try the interview anyway just to see what they're willing to pay?

First I ever heard of them. I honestly don't really understand what they do from visiting the site. Regarding the reach out, it seems like they just scraped a bunch of LI profiles

Sounds like you answered the question yourself... no need to respond. People ghost recruiters all the time. In fact, recruiters ghost people all the time too.
