I worked with Microsoft 18 months ago and I asked the pimp who I worked through at the time what their position will be post April '20 and he says they have done the same as the banks, no engagement with PSC's whatsoever, either go on payroll or walk.

Quite surprised by this as MS do like to be contractor heavy.

Our promise is a simple one, to make the challenge of hiring not so challenging through a personable, honest approach and dedicated hard work..…..simple!

And because an agent told us this we believe him how much

Market was dead in January, started to pick up rapidly early feb, was hot for a fortnight but since then - nothing. Tumbleweed for the last 10 days. The dreaded virus, perhaps.
