At least your a funny spammer.

Thanks! But then that was a pitch to find quality people who might look differently to different tax advantages.

brobi, as I click through your site it seems to shift to the right.....why not outsource it to one of your contractors. First impressions count.
Also there is no validation on the register page.

How much is your service?

Yeah I know the first index screen is a little larger than the home.html page. Yes validation would be good on the register page and I am actually looking for website development.

I cut back on the price at 299 per year. It was either proper agent commission type charges, which I don't want to do. Or an outright charge which is easier to manage. I believe you get what yo pay for and quality speaks for itself.

Get your CV done professionaly...it really helps. I use this guy

Excellent service and he has been doing mine for years...

advice: its not a CV unless you are looking for a permi job - its a consultant profile

A bit on the high side for prices. 1 cv would be a quarter of your membership for Complete Contractor.

I'll do your 1st cv for free and get you a contract now beat that price!

* say which role you are interested in
* state that you have sent your profile
* Ask them more information
* Who is it with (if you haven't already worked it out)
* ask for a detailed role description
* say that once they have sent you the detailed description you will provide an assessment on how suitable you feel you are for the role, highlighing skills they are looking for that you are particularly strong on.
* if you don't like the sound of it, explain that you do not feel you are what they are looking for, but has the agent got anything similar

I agree but you want to present your self as a professional and come across on the phone as a person who gets things done. Mention

you are good at networking
you are solution driven
You do what it takes to see projects through
you can work unsupervised
you have presentation skills (if you do)
YOu are a team player
You play well with others and are not a know it all but very resourceful
highlight any troubleshooting skills

These are some of the things that will have them calling you. You need to come across as the guru of your field!

Make them believe that they can place you if they just get you an interview.
