Never be rude about them - it will end badly.
The agency should only confirm dates.
I was miffed when leaving my permanent job in May this year as they put my reason for leaving as resignation. They should not have done that. However, best not to make a fuss.

Be honest...
Dodgy clients will be turned off by that ( good for your sanity ), great clients will see you have high standards...
Why are clients continuously treating us like permanent stuff? Why do we have to put up the difficult, absurd and incomprehensible recruitment barriers as contractor staff can be between contracts for months and months, especially in economic climate?Comment

If your a director of a ltd company or a mortgage holder your not even allowed to claim anything whatsoever right now they expect you to shut down your ltd company & sell your home to downsize before claiming!'CUK forum personality of 2011 - Winner - Yes really!!!!Comment

Originally posted by SandyD View PostOh if you include the contract in your CV (I recommend that) then you need to come up with a very good excuse why it lasted only 2 months e.g. too much travel, project downsized or cancelled etc
