    Bite Consulting

    I can't see what value you provide at all!

    Over the years I have carpet bombed my CV to all the agencies, Use CW jobs and the like, carpet bombed my CV to all prospective clients and this strategy has woked well for me.

    I really can't see where BITE consulting fits into the picture at all.

    I only work for what rate I want to work for.

    15% Charge just seems really steep for no real service.

    I think I'll rather supply my bank details to this nice nigerian man that wants to give untold millions. It seems like a really viable proposition. BITE however just sounds a bit dodgy!!

      dodgy indeed.

      i think they basically prey on overseas UK job websites and harvest overseas CVs before any agent in the uk can get their hands on them. So thats their strategy - dangle a carrot infront of the bunnies and cage them from behind.

      15% for only 65 days
      on a £300 a day contract that is almost £3000 over 3 months.

      also what our friend from BITE failed to tell us is that you are locked into paying them a smaller fee for a lot lot longer (since ur contract with them is much longer than 65 days).

      Also i forgot to mention earlier two other unprofessional things,

      - I recieved an email from them in June where all other recipients were disclosed
      -they put your CV in an unsecured site that doesn't require logon details. So people can annonymously download your CV. eg http://www.biteservices.com/cvfiles/501.doc

      just use a different number eg 498.doc in the above link to go the the next CV.


      I just think that these sort of companies who prey on people in the recruitment market just need to be taken down. This industry needs to be regulated!

        Perhaps they could get someone in on a contract to fix that for them.

        My services come at £xxx.xx per hour, plus a 15% commission for the first 3 months the work is live, and 5% from then on until they go bust.

          Another happy customer!!!!

          Strange that all the people complementing BITE all joined on the same day, all posted thier first post in support of BITE then never posted again.

          HMMMMMMMMMMM.......

          Would this be a attempt at self promotion perhaps.

            My guess is that BITE's Mum is vacuuming his bedroom, so he can't post for a bit.

                Why on earth do you people always want the govt to sort your problems out for you? Since when does HMgovt do anything well, and surely , like the nigerian scam people are intelligent enough to find these things out for themselves thanks to forums like this
                Let us not forget EU open doors immigration benefits IT contractors more than anyone
