Wow, I thought everyone who emails knows about BCC. You should be embarrassed.
Me too. Entry level or not, it's a basic function of email correspondence. What you did was very unprofessional. In the time it has taken you to create and reply to this thread, you could have sent the individual emails you thought would take up too much of your time.
Are you a hiring manager or a sales person at a temp agency? I ask because I've only seen these things happen with so called "recruiters" from staffing agencies.
If you're an actual hiring manager, I would suggest taking the time to write individual emails if you want to attract quality talent. Mass emails, if you will, turn most people off and look at them as spam.

This is true.
A better option than bcc would be to use a mail merge. Dead simple to set up, and it has the bonus of being customized.
Puh he scared the **** out of me! Next time I know though and will use BCC field
Those people posted their e-mail/contact information through a source website us recruiters/hiring managers pay to use and to find candidates. He got angry because I included his e-mail with bunch of others qualifying candidates. Big deal.... he's the only person saying that to me.
I hope you figure out why that was a really bad thing for you to do. If you had done that to me, I would have called your manager. Many people who work with recruiters don't want people to know that they are looking for a job. No one wants their email address shared with strangers. You may be better off fessing up to your manager now.
Valentino, between this and asking someone how much they're going to make in their new job, you should probably lay off the "as a hiring manager", and dispensing advice to others for a while. It seems you need to get your feet wet first. And not because you're drowning.

Agreed. Your posts seem to indicate that you might be an entry level HR recruiter. That is fine, misrepresenting yourself is not.
