    or is there a chance agencies decided to move all contract roles to Permanent with agencies to make money..?"

    Yes..the question being asked is:

    What does this mean? The sentence the doesn't make sense.

    I makes some sense. I've seen the same roles being advertised as contract and permanent. The permie version is either with the end client (because they're not fussed about employing someone permanently) or with a consultancy who are subbing to an end client through an EB.

    Or the agency attracts contractors with ads and then tries to move them to permie roles.

    Or the client insists that the contractor is actually on a fixed term employment contract with the EB and is then contracted out to the client.

    Or a fixed term PAYE employment with the end client.

    These are safer bets for agency/EB's than genuine freelancers.

      Thanks...
      I normally give Firm NO to any Perm openings...so if contract openings are less or contracts are moved to Perm, I will be in trouble.

          I think the most constructive thing I can offer is to take English language lessons at night school.

          That will give you the means to write a grammatically correct C.V. which will then enhance your employability.

          Good Luck !
          Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

            Response from agencies were quite OK till 10 months back. Same resume with additional task info I am using now. So Resume English should not be a major issue...

                    Keep an open mind on permanent, if I were you. Permanent is never really permanent nowadays.
