How do you share your availability for work with prospects & recruiters?

Sorry, that was in Bradford. This one below in Milan

Can't access that here unfortunately.

Looks grim in Bradford, although the crack looks like it must be quite effective .

This is my method, works for me but won't for everyone.

- Register CV on relevant jobsites.
- I am on LinkedIn, but only for job history. Never use it.
- Unrecognised/unknown/withheld phone numbers == Ignore (Better still use a batphone for these)
- "Want a catchup/check your availability" messages sent via voicemail/email == Ignore
- Irrelevant roles sent via voicemail/email == Ignore
- Relevant roles == reply with "Not looking right now, but interested in X roles ay Y location, keep me on file"

When this contract ends I'll just update the CV and upload it, and wait for the sharks to come circling.

There are apps which block withheld/unknown numbers which you can turn on and off.

- "Want a catchup/check your availability" messages sent via voicemail/email == Ignore
- Irrelevant roles sent via voicemail/email == Ignore
- Relevant roles == reply with "Not looking right now, but interested in X roles ay Y location, keep me on file"

This is worth doing. Also tell them to email you available roles explaining due to being a contractor you never know when you are free and that if you aren't you may pass them to someone you know.
