    On pressing further he said he'd phoned up clientco pretending to be from HSBC before getting my contact details and emailing me directly.

    'Oh you rec cons' I laughed.
    'Oh I know' he chuckled.

      My Nephew spent a summer holidays for a recruitment call call up people pretending to be a headhunter. Trying to get as much details out of them as possible to use for Sales leads.

      I do hope your call was genuine - the very best of luck with it.

        I was headhunted in October last year. Paperwork sorted, start on Monday morning, bright and early, 20 minutes from home.

        Boomed.

        It's a permy job
