    Hoping to get back to contracting - Workday project Reading/Warwick

    I am being contacted about a Workday (this is what I do these days) role. It's via an agency trying to pimp me to Wipro - who are doing a Workday UK payroll product for a client - they are saying occasional travel to Reading and Warwick - I don't suppose anyone has a clue on who the end client is? I realise this is a very niche request.

    Could be IBM.

    He had a negative bluety on a quackhandle and was quadraspazzed on a lifeglug.

    I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.

      Ah - never thought of that. Needless to say after it being all-fired urgent on Tuesday and me sending them everything they asked for whilst I was still talking to the agent, it's gone dead now. I am currently in a totally soul destroying permie job and I would so love to just walk straight out and go and do the contract gig.

        Good luck.

        It would be particularly ironic to be stuck in a typical Workday ghosting scenario when applying for a Workday role.

            Wouldn't it? It wouldn't be the first time, either. WD has a lot of modules - my specialisation is payroll and absence systems, not recruitment thank goodness

              If you need any specific advice about Warwick (hotels, restaurants, pubs, facilities) let me know and I will help where I can.
              If it is National Grid/Telent or anything on that technology park, be mindful of traffic around there morning/evening rush hours and lunchtimes, it can be painful.

                Why do you live down there or are contracting there at the moment?
