    Anyone using this as a source of contracts? If so, is it any good?

    Thanks

      I just came across it, I'm going to register - lets see what happens!

        Just registered.

        But any website which requires me to manually input all of my experience and work history is a website I don't have time for. Not even an 'upload CV' option.

        Terrible.

          Oh my God. You can actually see other contractors' personal work experience and 'sales pitch' details.

            I just registered, there's big flaw though.

            Why can't I just upload a CV? It has everything anyone would need?

            I can't be bothered if they can’t provide this facility.

              Yes it was a pain to get all the experience in, the good thing about it though it made me re-read bits of my CV that I had not read for a while and I took the opportunity to update that too!

                I've just spotted someone I've worked with before just from the previous experience, I can't believe he's asking for that much.

                  Actually it's very good to see what other contractors in your field are asking for and so to remain competitive!

                    I've just checked out some of the entries - I'm shocked that some of the rates have come down so much!
