    Silverlink

    Got them on now, not much going at work, how best to waste their time.....

    It's a job 'offer' think she said meant Horsham when she said Horse-ham - no idea what clientco is there, think IBM have an office there though.

    I honestly can't understand a word she's saying, so she's emailing me now.

    Can't even do that right, called me back asking if I got the email, no I haven't!!

    Did she even bother asking for your references?

        There's a few companies have offices around Horsham for some weird reason. See if you can find out the industry.
        …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

          Got the email - it's the usual rate, representation crap, asked for my normal rate, not tried to knock me down (yet).

          It's for WiPro though, not sure I can be arsed, no sign of the role on the job boards, makes me think it's one of those team gathering exercises where they go in armed with 'the team' and bid for work. ie no actual role at the moment.

          Must be IBM, Lennox Wood.......

            Could be the RSPCA HQ

            If so, I wouldn't expect a brilliant rate

              They're closing Lennox, too!
              I was an IPSE Consultative Council Member, until the BoD abolished it. I am not an IPSE Member, since they have no longer have any relevance to me, as an IT Contractor. Read my lips...I recommend QDOS for ALL your Insurance requirements (Contact me for a referral code).

                Novartis used to be there as well.


                ...but they have got a decent John Lewis/Waitrose now.

                  Any truth in the rumor they are renaming to Indian Business Machines?
                  Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

                    Silverlink are on my blocked caller list, they are such a waste of time. They can call and email you 3 times per day about the same role and the next day again the same thing and each call may be a different Indian.
