    Most likely lack of skills and not being the killer guy for the role. If you are looking at £200 a day roles they will expect you to have an accent.



    What do you mean didn't turn up?
    No response or didn't come back

      if you a ASP.NET/MVC3/Jquery kinda guy, then there should be contracts available. I have been getting calls with agents I have worked with before. Whereabouts are you based?

            does it mean there is no contracts for web form developers?

              Knowledge and lights hands is useless. There will be a long queue of people that can demonstrate and are experts.

              Getting trained is equally useless. You need to be able to demonstrate a long/solid history of applying it.

              This thread redefines the term flogging a dead horse.

                Indeed - your CV needs to market yourself to both the agent and client co.

                Did your work save a company millions?
                Did you wipe out half a companies work force through automation etc. (that may need to be rephrased though!)

                  What's your thoughts on Setting CV visible to everyone, limited, private.

                  I wish to set it to visible to everyone afraid though.

                    How is setting it to private or limited going to help you find a role.

                    Look for a permie role, you are most definitely cut out for this.

                      That doesn't make any sense, poor attempt at a sockie.

                      I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.
