An agent asked me the details of my ex-employers (salary, rate) and even my personal details.
I refused to answer these questions, but then he eventually told me a job details and could put me forward to his client.
However, he insisted not to disclose his client name and said he would contact me if his client wants to interview me. I have found that it is very odd and most of the agents would tell me the client name when discussing a role.
Can an agent send my CV to his client without telling me this client's name? Is it a real job or the agent is playing game? What is it about? If he is fishing or the job is not real, why would he waste his time to do it?
Also, did you experience that agents requested you to fill your personal details (DOB, nationality,ex-salary, benefits of the ex-company etc) in their form, as it was their clients' requirement? Otherwise, they could not forward your CV to their clients. Is it really true that you have to do this before getting any interviews?
I ignored them and said that I would fill the form and submit it to their clients directly if I get an interview with them.
