    Hi All,

    In London from overseas and ready to start working. So far have only been applying through jobserve. Is it worth going and meeting the actual recruitement agents?
    What is it that you do?

                  I asked questions on this board as i thought my fellow IT contractors would help, but i get abused instead by some people. Am i supposed to just take the abusive comments? I thought this was a forum for IT contractors helping each other out regardless of their background.

                    I'm a Cisco engineer as well

                    Market seems quite good at the mo, go to jobserve and search on cisco+london - not too shabby

                      Terribly sorry Yamamma, some of our bretheren seem to have forgoten their manners and the rules.

                      They should realise that we do not take the piss in the serious threads and should be ashamed of themselves. You would, however, be considered fair game in the general section if you feel up to it.

                      I would not suggest meeting the agents, unless you have a personal recommendation from someone.

                      Look on the front page of our humble web site and you will find a job search section. That will search a number of job sites for you.

                      I would also suggest posting your CV on those job sites, but you will get spammed by agents who do not realy have a job available.
                      I am not qualified to give the above advice!

                      Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time
