Fishing calls from M****

[NorthWestPerm2Contr]

Not sure what the problem is here? I am quite happy to take some fishing calls from agents. At least I am on their books and radar.

If they have to pester me 15 times and then one day it actually falls right and they help me get a contract then I am quids in.

Rather put up with a couple of 5 min calls from time to time and land a role than not at all.

5 mins i can do. But the list of questions they have is never ending. First fishing call took me over 15 mins.

Tell them you have 5 mins tops or you are putting phone down. They will speed it up a bit I am sure.

Agreed. Take control of the conversation and tell them what YOU want.
