Reached 1000 mark...!!! Still no Interview call..???
Also, I know some testers (senior testers/test analyst) who got their contracts with less than GBP200.00 per day. maybe you are competing with those who are willing to get lower rate. That's why the agents would like to forward their CVs to clients not yours.
Senior tester for less than £200. Surely not? They must be rubbish.
I have had a quick look at your CV and I would agree with the other comments that the presentation needs to be sorted out.
It is an intimidating document because of the layout so I wouldn't be surprised if the majority of hiring managers that see it decide that they can't be bothered to attempt to read it, especially if they have others to look at.
Also, bear in mind that the agents probably search your CV for buzzwords and think that yours is OK because it has the buzzwords. But then they will copy and paste into their own format. You need to make sure that your layout is easy for them to copy and paste from without causing a disaster.
There's two spelling mistakes right at the end, its the kind of thing that niggles me - other than that, 7 weeks isnt that long - have you had any feedback from agencies yet?
I am in deep **** I think...!!
I just made 1000th application for contract role in 2008.!!
Do you have AS400 knowledge and live in the Thames Valley/London. If so, PM me, I might have a little inside knowledge about a position that's not on the market yet...

as you see in CV (http://www.mediafire.com/?1ykims0kobi) am from 101% TELCO. that could be the reason i donot have any prospect as well. None of these TELcos are seems to be recruiting..!!
Blow me down, my CV came up #1 in google, I'm impressed with myself
This will rather depend upon how unique your name is.
I have a friend who has no chance of his Web Site being found with a google search because the first 3 million hits are about a Premier League Footballer.
