The recruiter calls are the worst waste of time! On top of that, if a recruiting agency sets you up, you're looking at an additional call with each company recruiter and/or hiring manager, before even starting to interview.
On top of that, each individual call/interview takes up some adjacent time to schedule + prep and occupies your headspace until it happens.
