    Name and shame all you like, finding anyone that GAF, might be more of of problem.

    Move on, it's part and parcel of what we do...

      Mistake number 1 was contacting the client directly, number 2 is getting yourself worked up about it, its par for the course.

          No-one cares.

          Life's too short to waste on this - move on and do something else.

            Yep that's gonna do a whole fat lot of good isn't it.

            Maybe agents treat us like numpties because sometimes we act like it? Our own worst enemy and that.

              Indeed, might I suggest a more sympathetic place for the poor soul to visit for further empathy.

                Please save your sympathy for someone who needs it I moved on from this role last week to something else in Financial Services which is longer term. Just thought I would be consistent & post my results to let others know (who may need the sympathy!!).

                    This is exactly what I did when I was still new at contracting. Within 5 minutes after sending the message on LinkedIn to the endclient I got the agency on the phone, I was unprofessional blah blah blah blacklist blah blah blah.

                      Why would you add someone on LinkedIn when his only experience of you is a failed interview and and he uses and agent to field his contractors for him? Besides giving the interviewer a good laugh before he rejects what's the point?
