        also did you know its company policy to pay 100pound out to refer a candidate that succeeds in getting a job? so if you give them a name or have in the past and he/she gets the role, you're meant to have your pockets lined.

            areas that they find it hard to recruit in at the moment are all the ERP / SAP areas. so watch those.

                we are advised to never work below 25%. i have people in the same team as me with over 20+ contractors working at 30% +

                the guys that are in the southern offices london etc will usually have a 30-35% mark up

                  The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

                  But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

                    Here's one you might not have heard of

                    They ring up with a great job, spend 15 mins going through how you are ideal for the job - so good in fact that they will take your references immediately.

                    You never hear from them again, but on the plus side, all your references get a monthly phone call from them forever.
