Latest Trick from Modis for reference...!!!

[minestrone]

A few of the chaps at clientco are with Elan. They are gagging to join Modis.

I'm very sure that you are working at the same IB that I left last year. That is the second thing you have said recently that seems to tie up.

I was working at clientCo with Elan and had an agreement with my manager that if contract was to be extended I was moving to Modis, Elan were constantly fecking things up regarding payment. Budget never got signed off though.

The people with Modis were all very complimentary about them.

Modis are Quite Good

I feel Modis are very good or at least my impression of them has been so. No problems at all. I know their margin and its quite low. Also, always negotiated stuff like rates with them. Quite professional in their approach.

They have never used any underhand tactics with me.

I got two of those damn emails.

One last week and the other today.

Last weeks one was amusing as it was looking for Interior designers and architects.

I don't know how my CV came up in that word search.

Do they not realise that contractors talk to each other?

Do they not realise that contractors talk to each other?

badger7579,

I got the same email but locations and skill sets relevant to myself were different to yours.

They mentioned circa 200 jobs available at these three companies.

Just needed to supply two references.
