Chaps and chapesses, I am sure you have had the situation before where you do an interview, it goes fine and an offer seems likely. Then you get a call from the agent saying they want you, but would like to work for 10% less. Less than the rate that was agreed before you did the interview.
You probably stuck to your guns and were later offered the full amount. Or perhaps you accepted the lower. But what I am interested in is - was it reflected in the rest of the contact. Did the client turn out to be as poor as their initial flakey behaviour indicated ?
It happened to me one time. I stuck to my guns and held on for the full amount. During the contract the hiring manager commented that I was swallowing up all the profit. And after 3 months they didn't renew, but I left on good terms.
