Yes, much of this recruiter email is from 3rd party recruiters that hope to get a commission from the hiring company. They reach out with the broadest search terms.

A nitpick: it's not the companies that are interviewing without intent to hire, it's the 3rd-party recruiters that are blasting you. Developer time is expensive and typical companies don't waste that.

I think "get another job on Monday" is a euphemism; 1-3 months would be pretty representative of the current market in the SF/SV and Washington, DC areas.
