Agents come to mind. I used to have company names on profiles but after the typical agent bollocks about knowing so and so who worked there, I took them off. In fact I recall doing a contract and the main switchboard contacted me stating there was a Mr. Slimy Toad trying to get a hold of me urgently and could I ring him back on this number (this was in Germany and the number was a UK one) and when I did it was an agent who had pulled the information from a profile with company name on and decided to try his luck and actually lied to say he was a software supplier to the client.“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.” -
And there goes Brillo, sucked in.Originally posted by SimonMac View Post(thought that would get your attention)
When talking about past clients, especially those that have been taken over or merger do you mention the the name they were or the name they are now?
For example I worked with CSC, do I say CSC or now DXC?
