As a job recruiter, I am intimately familiar with posting a job and then getting hammered with SPAM from companies and recruiting firms.
In the past 5 minutes, I've gotten two. One from BobAJobs-munged.com and one from http://ad1.geowebsv48a-munged.com/recruiting_service.html.
How would these type of spam's be viewed for addition to SURBL?

I'm not sure they'd qualify. SURBLs are most appropriate for catching zombie-using spam gangs. Those are the ones that are probably the biggest spammers by message volume, and they're probably hardest to catch with RBLs or MTA blocklists due to their nearly-random and rapidly-changing sender IPs.
If the job spammers send from consistent IPs, then just block those sender IPs. If they use zombies to send, then probably we should list them.
So do they use zombies or fixed IPs to send from?
