Vivid Resourcing

[LondonManc]

I got your point but it still does not make them professional from my point of view.

On top of that, that guy has been posting the same/similar job (very pseudo one) over and over again which at last made me realise that he is not really looking for somebody to hire. I can't think of any other reasonable explanation.

If the perfect cv arrives late, he'll be able to chuck it at the hiring manager. He probably gets one chance to do that; you're late and not a perfect enough match.

I had a great contract through them a while back.
Always paid on time, no hassles fair rate.
The agent I was in contact with is no longer there though.

Watch Out..

I have some serious reservation for this agency.

I have been approached for a job outside the UK and still wondering why I accepted!

It was quite fine until I have gotten to know that Vivid is taking a huge part of my hourly rate.
Should they have taken a fairer amount instead, I could have joined a special tax scheme for Expat, helping me quite a bit.

When I asked for a little bit extra, unaware of their margins, the agent said the margins were tight.

I am suffering extremely late Payments.

There is another curious fact about this assignment.

The umbrella company the agent suggested, which luckily I did not choose, paid a colleague of mine at the time, 500/600 GBP less than me a month for the same amount of hours.

I am just looking forward to completing this contract and have any business with them.

Other points excepted.

However, regarding margin, its none of your business. You were offered a rate. You accepted it.

Probably you did not read well the post. Do it, please.
