Ditto to the calls. But also somehow my details have made it Stateside and am getting a load of contract roles based in the US repped by Indian agents...

I wonder how many of these are fronts for the more well-known body shops?

[uk contractor]

Data Inc UK are legit they handle Goldman Sachs in the US-UK hiring contractors & some outsourcing! (rates are very low though about 50% less than you would expect Goldman to offer for top talent! Data Inc clearly keep most of the rate themselves...).

Adroit People Ltd - are also legit they got me a 1st interview last week with a well known IB!

Who says they are not legit, they are fronts for HCL, TCS, InfoSys, Wipro, mpahsis, Tech Mahindra etc. If you want to work for a very low rate, have issues with payments in time, being treated as a slave and be ready to be replaced as soon as they can on-shore an even cheaper Indian body, go for it

THIS is a good example to what you said:

In that example i would have thought not being able to travel abroad without a good reason and the lack of flights to India would put an end to those shenanigans.

your comment is to the point although it rests on the presumption that the employer actually cares and sees its employees as anything more than cattle.

Travel for work is allowed. Travel for repatriation is also allowed.

You have misinterpreted my post.

I meant that when I see a recruiter's (individual) name, that appears to be Indian, I immediately go and check out the company as I wonder if it's one of these, which makes me feel like I'm discriminating against a particular ethnicity. Whereas if it's not, I don't feel obliged to do this.

In the end I found myself putting the phone down whenever I heard a strong Indian accent talking to me about "job opportunity".

It is a particularly callous thing to do and cannot be very pleasant for the person on the other end. However, they chose that job, it comes with the territory.

I wish this scheme just stopped existing.
