          Not sure they'd be very good - condones kiddy-fiddling, warmongering, murder, etc.

            Had 2 calls last week about supposedly genuine contracts (private sector). Each one concluded with a request for 2 technical references with me refusing to play ball.

            Just had another call from Rocsearch & I asked right away if this was going to be another convoluted conversation which would end up with a request to give 2 technical references. Phone went dead.
            I've had calls from Rocsearch, and each of them have ended in requests for technical references. Abruptly ended, mind

            Also had some calls from Nigel Frank International that culminated in asking for references

              These shysters rarely have the gig in the first place. "Can I see a spec, please" usually has them running for cover.

              He had a negative bluety on a quackhandle and was quadraspazzed on a lifeglug.

              I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.

                +1 with Nigel Frank experience.

                While I have sympathy with agencies in the current market, I do wish 90% of them would stop giving the rest a bad name.

                    +2 for Nigel Frank - total timewasters and borderline harassment. I've probably received a call a day for the last 2 months from these clowns. Just kids that are desperate to punt low level Microsoft consultant (AX) roles.

                    If you've got AX anywhere on your CV, do yourself a favour and decline any calls from the 0191 area.

                      Most Nigel Frank and their same worthless sister company Mason Frank calls come from the 020 area (for microsoft CRM and Salesforce), I have loads on my block list, but they keep calling from new numbers
