Yes, some recruitment firms are refusing to lower their margins, so the contracts are been given to Indian outsourcers. They may not be able to fill all the roles in the short term, so Indian recruitment firms are getting involved.

Don't think the contracts will come with extentions

Local pimps should find more meaningful and ethical way to live their lives.

But do they come with a side order or Sag Aloo and some Poppadoms?

The only thing that worries me about dealing with off-shore recruitment companies is that I don't know what legal rights my company would have if they defaulted on paying or if there was some other dispute.

It happens from time to time. Usually they keep the high-value work on-shore (pestering clients), and offshore the low-value stuff (talking to contractors).
