Saw one not too long ago for 2 years expereince with windows server 2007, to which i chuckled, classic being SQL Server 2003. The agents just get a list of an HR person, how got the requirements from an IT manager, none of whom know what they are talking about, but are too arrogant to admit it.

I have been recruited by an agent who actualy had a broad understanding of the technologies in use, and the whole process was good. He did edit my CV but showed it to me, he cut out some waffle and made it more concise as well. Was a while ago mind.

Seems to me that the recruitment model has moved from specialist people who know the industry they work in, towards sales dickheads that think bulltulip works.

I was advised by another contractor at my last gig that "you had to lie to get the work". We were sat in my bosses car at the time. He was gone by the end of the week.

There's a moral there somwhere, but I just can't seem to work it out

What boss? I am a freelancer delivering a service to a client. I am the boss.
