No idea who she said she worked for, but had a call about a job local to me. They don't come up often so I was obviously interested. They wanted my skills and when I stated what rate I wanted she told me that was no problem as that was the least they were offering. I asked, but she can't tell me the client's name, they asked for it to be confidential until interview. I ask how I'm supposed to know what to say if someone else calls me about the same role - she says it's a bank/financial in the centre of Leicester. I'm then trying to work out who that be, cos the only major player I can think of in this industry is not in the centre and I've worked for them before. So it's suddenly a bit fishy and too good to be true, but I'm still biting...
That is, until she says "by the way, can we have a technical reference from your previous client"?
I say sure, when I get an interview, I will pass on details to the client.
She says sorry, we can't put you forward for the role without one.
I said fine, don't put me forward then.
I hope I was right.
