Just imagine what would have happened if your security came through 2 days before reaching Elite! What a conundrum!!

OMG! You guys on CUK are awesome!

First time on bench and first time out of work in 8yrs (been contracting for 10 months now), I was close to anxiety attack! Last 2 weeks, I spent most of the day on jobserve. Bugging agents (that put my CV forward) for feedback! Looks like I need to smile and accept this as a very likely part of my life. Thanks again guys you ROCK!

please keep responses coming. I am sure many many newbies like me will LOVE this thread!

WOW! You believe everything people post on here about their 'short' bench time!? Geewhizz!

I'd suggest that this thread is more realistic for some people.
