I think the hiring manager likes to test your caliber by delaying extension chats until the 11th hour.
I guess things change at a business level so hey ho, they know want to know if I'm interested in staying. If I'd had something else sorted (I don't) then it'd be tough luck no hard feelings.
Looks like they're going to offer me a 3 monther with a review after xmas where they've admitted they might need to cut it short but will give me 4 weeks notice. Up front and honest, can't say fairer than that. Pretty good client in my book.
I'm just happy to be over Xmas, two months work minimum it looks like. Possibly Feb/Mar is better to be on bench than Dec/Jan. Xmas is saved at least !!!!Rhyddid i lofnod psychocandy!!!!Comment

I'll be honest, I've seen some awful rates out there as well. Struggling to get anything within £50 of what I'm getting now.
A couple close to home so willing to take the cut for that but still seems to be a lot of tulipe being floated at the moment.Rhyddid i lofnod psychocandy!!!!Comment

In this case, they told me 10 days ago they wouldn't be extending. Fair play they gave me 3.5 weeks notice.Looks like they're going to offer me a 3 monther with a review after xmas where they've admitted they might need to cut it short but will give me 4 weeks notice.

I'm guessing by review, review of the project and where they are, not a personal review?The Chunt of Chunts.Comment
