[QUOTE=newtopgun;620313]Hi,
"An agent contacted me recently for a possible role, and was asking for all places where I have send CV in past.
I told him that's not fair if as an agency they are talking to multiple candidates, then we also have right to apply at other places (my mistake that I tried to be reasonable).
Also, I told him, that if he tells me the co. name I can assure him, if I have been represented there or not. But the chap was adamant and finally the call ended by he saying that he would make my refusal to tell co. names as a note on my CV, for his colleagues, so as not to pursue this CV.
Will this harm me? This co. is part of S3 group, are there CV databases interlinked?"
It will only harm you with that agency which, from the sound of it, is at the bottom of a dung heap of agents NOT to use. Why not name it wso we call avoid it?
