    Avoid any with the initials P&R.
    Also, any with "IT" in the name. That's a bad sign. As is "Computer".

    Plus "People" in the name: another bad sign.

    Anything called "Resourcing" should be avoided, and even more so "... Consulting".

    Agencies that are Ltd are notoriously bad, nearly as bad as the plcs.

    (In fact, I'm surprised Computer People aren't called IT Computer People Resourcing.)

    Amazingly, my current pimps, SmartSourcing, are OK. The contract says pay monthly: they pay on receipt of timesheet; I've been taken out for lunch for the first time in years; they phone up about once a month to check I'm OK (plus ask for leads, but that's expected!)

    Back to the question: when I was last benched, Pathway got me an interview and I won the gig and they were OK about it when I turned it down for a better gig. For another role, I emailed them and THEY PHONED ME BACK!!! Compared to usual experiences, that puts Pathway in my top 5%
    My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.

          I can assure you sir that the photos of that incident were fakes!

          And I was found not guilty...
