    As discussed, please do some initial preparation work on the top 3 markets that you have identified as those you would like to attack. Please look at the below as guidelines to identifying your market

    Identify a market (E.g .NET development, Oracle, SAP, Siebel)

    Identify market share for contractors

    Identify any particular trends in markets ie Peak times for recruitment- I.e is
    there any time of year when the industry need extra staff?

    Identify popular markets within the North west

    This doesn’t have to be very detailed but will atleast get you in the mindset of thinking verticals..

    Thank you very much for your help

    Kind regards
    Robin Hirons

    Oh dear Robin Hirons of Modis International, I think you've failed to realise people in IT are actually quite good at using the basics of the Internet and finding out information about prospective agents and agencies that we might engage work through.

        Thats not very nice you know people. You may have scarred this poor individual for some time. Publically humiliating an agent of all people! I mean, charidy work, helping contractors off the bench, helping others... etc and you just rip the piss.

        For shame. For shame on you.

        You know what they say about assumptions!

            What a pillock!

            Is it the case that anybody of low IQ heads straight to either Estate Agent or Recruitment Agent route ?

                Of course it is possible that the OP is the sockie of some established poster who's encountered this agent and has gone fishing for our responses with the equivalent of hand grenades knowing that someone like Chef would do the digging...

                  I'm not quite sure what's happened - I didn't remove it...

                      Rather you than me, MF.

                      Wasn't me who changed the OP. The mystery deepens...
