    You know its not looking like you've got contract qwhen....

    Agent phones you on wednesday dead keen, thursday phones you to tell you they're hoping for feedback on your submitted CV on tuesday.

    Then Tuesday comes, agent ignores your calls, then you see the role turn up on jobserve again.

    Looks like its a no then!

          For the record though, whilst I'm in a gig I dont tend to look but if something comes along I won't dismiss it out of hand. Got to keep options open.

            Has anyone else noticed this worrying trend of agents not ringing you back when there isn't a role for you?

                    They've automated the hassling.
