    Agent!!

    Got a call Thursday for a gig I assumed long dead. Can I come to an interview Tues. in Leeds, yup, np...

    I ask for details, where in Leeds, when, job spec to remind me since gig is so old and initial jobsite post was vague anyway.

    Agent said yeah, I'll send on...

    Nowt, called twice including 30 mins ago, yeah details emailed asap, no prob, still nowt.

    Gonna call again but I'm gonna look desperate now. I'm so fuked off dunno whether I should ask the so-called agent to put-up or shut-up cos I need to prepare, I'm not turning up on half a days notice if it comes to that and it's me that looks bad if I can't /don't...

    Calling again now, watch this space....

      Its not ideal but as long as you have the interview confirmed, I'd still go. Explain if you have to during the interview that the agent hasnt sent you the spec blah, blah, blah.

      Dont miss a job opportunity in this market.
      I couldn't give two fornicators! Yes, really!
