Hi, I know a company that is probably hiring, but they won't deal with me, the contractor, directly. How do I find out what their PSL is so I can go through the best channel?

I'd call their HR and outright ask which agencies you should approach if interested in contract work for them.Originally posted by darrenb View PostHi, I know a company that is probably hiring, but they won't deal with me, the contractor, directly.

But does that actually work? In my experience HR people are very anti-contractor and the best way to cope with them is avoid coming to their attention in the first place.Originally posted by TykeMerc View PostI'd call their HR and outright ask which agencies you should approach if interested in contract work for them.Der going over der to get der der's.Comment

Don't say anything aout being a contractor to HR, just ask them which agencies you should approach when looking for work at the company.Originally posted by darrenb View PostBut does that actually work?

Thanks, but then they'll say, "Just send us your CV directly" and it will go into the void.Originally posted by DaveB View PostDon't say anything aout being a contractor to HR, just ask them which agencies you should approach when looking for work at the company.Der going over der to get der der's.Comment
