I just need to get two references ...

[SueEllen]

There was no role...

^^^^^This.

If there was a role they would be happy to take the references after.

They would also be happy to take a reference from your accountant and one of your long term mates who is a teacher. Simply because work references aren't worth the paper they are written on.

Sure enough the role with interview slots "filled up by candidates who could give us references" was spammed out to me again this morning under a slightly different header from the same agent.

Does it not make you feel better to see such people?

No. It makes me wonder how some people get out of bed and dress themselves to be honest.

What's the resolution? Say no, sit on the bench and spend the rest of the year going "you know, most contractors only work 2 months a year"...

[WTFH]

You mean you don't have a butler to dress you?


I got mine through an agent...
Waiting And Nursing, Kitchen & Entertaining Resourcing Staff Ltd




It only cost me two references.
