    **Contractor rates that do not reflect the current market?*

    LOL Just got this in email

    Hi <Name>

    Are you paying contractor rates that do not reflect the current market condition? Would you like to know what you could be paying? Would you like to make your remaining budget go further? Please find attached a detailed contractor rate card.

    As the largest IT contract supplier in the UK, Computer People are in the best position to respond to falling market rates and provide excellent candidates at well below previous rates from a choice of over 400,000 live candidates.

    We are currently undertaking benchmarking projects with a number of customers and highlighting that Computer People are in a position to make significant cost savings on either existing contractors or up coming projects.

    With the need to cuts costs ever more pertinent I would really welcome the opportunity to show you just how much of a difference we can make to your projects and to your bottom line.

    Please contact me on the number below if you wish to discuss further.

    Regards,

    Anthony Halvatzis

                No way are there 400,000 excellent candidates available, live or dead.

                Unless Computer People's definition of excellent is different from mine.
