Found it to be the complete opposite over last two days, went from completly dead to live and kicking. Now if they would just stop posting contracts where people must have 1 billion years of financial/banking experience. -
yeah what is with that? I bet even the cleaners require 5 years banking experience!
Can't see it really making a huge difference......Comment

That I've noticed. Agents are calling me constantly but no interviews are getting set up and I have yeeeaaarrrs of financial service. Maybe its just me but I've had little trouble in the past. At 40 am I "over-the-hill"? (on paper at least, still a pretty-boy in the flesh)Comment

Very quiet for me too. A few agencies snooping around asking about my availability, and then coming out with some crap that a new project is coming up soon and could they have two references now, just to get me 'ahead of the game'. Tossers !
Anyway let's get back to real life ....... Would you do her ?
I just might after a few pintsComment
