Originally posted by uk contractor View PostYeah most of them are not hiring for a while now. Barclays, Lloyds, RBS, HSBC are all on massive IT cost cutting & or outsourcing programs so there are going to be thousands of IT perms who take redundancy or resign as they do not want to transfer to an outsourcer coming into the market sooner or later!

You have to wait until either the contract has ended or you reach a break clause.
Unfortunately having lived near problem private renters it's impossible to get them out until this point. You then may find yourself paying large court and bailiff fees especially if they are vulnerable and entitled to social housing as they can't just up and leave.Comment
