        From their site

        "COAL IT is part of the Coalition Holdings Group that commenced trading in 1998 and has enjoyed vigorous growth year on year. Based in the heart of the City of London, COAL IT provides integrated Technical Solutions, including IT Recruitment, Consultancy Solutions, Managed Services and Outsourcing."

        and

        "We pride ourselves on the honesty, integrity and quality of our employees. The investment in the training and development of our most precious of all resources, our people, is paramount to our ambitious growth plans."

        I think they mean ripping people off at £90 a day!

              What are Morse like ? I have come across them indirectly and heard mixed stories about them.

                But normal contractors need not apply.
                None will apply for this, then the poster can bring in an ICT as they can not find 'suitable' skills locally.
                Indian takeaways started this in the 80's when advertising for an indian chef for 3 grand a year, no one applied so they got their cousin over from Bangalore.

                Nothing ever changes!
                The spiral only goes down!

                  They also ignore emails & CVs of perfectly suitable contractors who live 2 minutes from their client site here!

                  Useless!!

                  Judging by this "daily rate" (sorry, I wouldnt get out of bed for that!) it would probably be a waste anyway!
