    Aaargh!

    Is there any way to filter out Billy Jenkins and MA Associates tulip from my search results? Every day for the last few years I've been seeing the same adverts with "very high" rates. Has anyone ever actually got a gig from this muppet?

      Just keep applying for it (at least 100 a day), they will take it down sometime.

        Alarm bells ring when they start with say "I've got a great opportunity for you..." What they should be saying is "Can you help me? I need a website building" or whatever.

        Do they call out the emergency plumber by saying "Hi, I've got a brilliant toilet-unblocking opportunity that'll give you exposure to cutting edge Andrex-retrieval"?

          I genuinely questioned whether he meant to say £220 - I mean that would be low...

              When I search on Indeed.com there are 100s of vacancies with the Huxley lot. I wonder what happens when they actually have a genuine role to fill - do their candidates take them seriously?

                On the subject of companies advertising directly, do they just post in local papers, or any other journals etc?
