    The answer's in the name of the agency......

    sorry just kidding...couldn't resist that one...never heard of them
    Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

      If an agency sent my CV to a client and the agency were called ThinkAgain Ltd, I would still accept, because unless they wanted to dispute your invoice and go to court, you would get paid what u were promised.

        They are run by a guy called Jon Butterfield who used to run Best International before they were swallowed up by Spring. So he's been around the block a bit.

          In which case, they're probably OK. Best were pretty good until they got swallowed up. Don't touch Spring with a bargepole though.

            I have to agree
            How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

              yeah, new ste-up...correct about butterfield....they've taken on several of Computer People's older employees who have become disenchanted since the Adecco takeover....allegedly....so very experienced consultants but not from the "barrow boy" regime that has dogged the industry for the past few years...mostly deal at 15% margin for contractors and have strong contacts within the industry on the client side....you should be fine....

                I'm with Rethink at the mo'

                I'm with Rethink at the moment, they are ok. They pay on time and tend to get stuff sorted pretty quickly.

                Just watch out for them trying to rip you off on the rate but I think that's standard agency operating procedure...
