Oh this one is getting bizarre(having editted the thread) in case the agency/client worked out based on the details I left.
The agent firstly didnt want to put me forward because I wasnt immediately available(as I am on notice) and so I was left with the impression I hadnt been put forward.
Then the agent just sent me the contact details for the client and told me to set my own interview up and let him know how I get on.
I left a couple of messages for the guy and heard nothing for three days. He then phoned me and we did a phone interview with me sat in the car.
He was very dull and I mean DULL! and after 15 minutes I started to say that it would be best if they went with someone who was immediately available because I wasn't. I emailed the agent to say thanks, but no thanks. I heard nothing for a week.
Agent has just emailed me. 'When can you start????'





Oh. Plus its at the end of my road.....Last edited by MarillionFan; 1 July 2010, 18:33.What happens in General, stays in General.You know what they say about assumptions!Comment
