Plenty cheapness

Going from past experience, I doubt that you'd even have working accounts and a PC or desk before the end of day one.

Or indeed sufficient time to fill in the clientco timesheet.

[MrMark]

Heh, got a lot of those skills (but not all of them). 2 day role hey? Why don't they just advertise for a mysql dba with apache on Linux experience, to administer the system over 2 days. It's not as if 2 weeks would be enough for this :-

Ability to gather requirements, design and implement appropriate solutions Strong process oriented experience in terms of implementation and completion

How about this then

experience in creating and leading a multi-disciplinary project team who will all be earning far more than you

[BlasterBates]

Looking at the rates for programmers...not sure, but you'll be earning less than the some of the cleaners.

[Board Game Geek]

Outside of IR35, as a perm role, £170 a day works out at approx £38K a year, which doesn't sound too shabby for a PM role surely ?

What does that mean? When I see a posting with a basic error such as that then I think to myself that it really is not worth applying. Not only is the wording wrong but everything is negotiable, maybe I want to earn less
