      I had one ring me about a very well paid contract in Munich. Sounded good but at the end she casually asked me if I could speak fluent German!

      Might have saved a lot of time all round if she asked that to start with.

        Worse thing is some legit business is going to get one of their discarded numbers in a year and find their number is on a spammers list.

          Agree, if the end client is prepared to accept broken English then I also have the problem of being interviewed in broken English.

            The indian recruitment consultancies are the ones who are decreasing the rates.

            I had a phone call from one of them and offered me €250/day (the worse example).

            I was like "Sorry how much!?"

                No the registered address is some dodgy accountant/solicitor/whatever above a shop in Wembley but they are operating from India.

                  Brace yourselves with more of these stories to come, as we go into invoking article 50 / BREXIT and seek to do new business with non-eu countires and returning them favours.

                    Just thought I'd throw this in re: Indians in general. Early days at work, limited access etc, had this Indian guy message me could I edit a Tomcat file for him since he didn't have root, so I did cos there's fook all else to do ATM, he was well impressed.

                    Thanked me for 'Doing a solid for him'...

                    Never heard that one but it's going on the list.....
