What defines reasonable, in your humble opinion? And what blind assumption are you making to assume I'm from an agency?Originally posted by goldenstarnice View PostSorry I didn't realise you guys are from Agency. I thought for contractors only. I understand the commission is important as long as it is reasonable.
I am a contractor. You are not.Comment

Yep, obviously! "Use our situation to go as low as they can"Originally posted by goldenstarnice View PostI am new to the contract world, i am wondering when we have contact signed will it be between the client and us or agency and us. How it works, how can we can find out before we start sending to cv to client.
It looks agency takes most of the money and trying to negotiate with us. Use our situation to go as low as they can.
