    Palm Mason

    Just putting the finishing touches together. Anyone worked through them before? Thoughts? Good, bad, indifferent?

    TIA

    Reading that some good research would be in order before signing anything.

          Thanks all!

          Yep, that 2009 thread is an eye opener. I've already told them I want weekly billing (mainly as I've never heard of them before), I've also contacted one of my linked in colleagues as he appears to have had contact with them.

          Had a look around their web site which tbh isnt much more than a couple of splash screens showing offices in a couple of locations other than UK Canary Wharf.

          The recruiter seems to check out on linked in but having said that, it doesnt take a lot of effort to create the illusion of credibility.

          Looks like I'll have to stick out for weekly billing and no doubt get Danny at B&C to review the T&C's!

            Never worked through them although have been contacted re roles and there approach seemed valid, non-intrusive, no "2 refs please" etc.... Roles sounded ok and matched my skillset.

            From my impression on the phone and infrequently, they seemed ok.
            Never has a man been heard to say on his death bed that he wishes he'd spent more time in the office.
