Agent submitted my CV without permission...

[ThomasSoerensen]

I thought 'rouge agent' was some special term I'd not heard before, felt quite out of the loop there

You have not seen the TV series "Archer"?

You have not seen the TV seriec "Archer"?

Nope, no idea what that even is

[scooterscot]

Normally I would not but I did.

I told them thanks but not thanks. They were not pleased and voices on the other end of the phone raised in volume and then some.

If i were needly I think I would have crumbled.

Agents hear this raw, consultants are people not commodities who are in limited supply. Abuse it and loose me forever and ever... (I have a black book)

ftfy. Just to give it a certain "Je ne sais quoi"...

Factoring?

It happens all the time.

If you ever want to go direct and need someone to factor your invoices then I know just the man.

Yes, yes - you'll get your 10%.

One of the reasons why I am tempted to send out my CV as a read only PDF, you have no control over a shed load of personal information once agents get it.

Hudson sent my CV out to a company once without my permission, someone recognised my name from school, phoned up my Mum's house, got my number and hired me direct. Thanks Hudson.

One agent went further in his stupidity, arranged an interview without my permission then never told me about it, he phones me up "you never went to the interview" "what interview?" Iain Marr of Edinburgh that award of stupidity goes to you (ironically he now works for Hudson).

So I had an interview today... through the alternative agent

...by the end I had them singing.

"Consider yourself at home.
Consider youself one of the family
We've taken to you so strong
It's clear we're going to get along
Consider yourself well in
Consider yourself part of the furniture
There isn't a lot to spare
Who cares?..What ever we've goin we share!"

Don't you just love it when interviews just go your way?

Consider yourself

[Platypus]

Perhaps not a big deal overhaul.
I'm at with the rouge agent.

Abuse it and loose me forever and ever...

Don't worry, you'll fail the spelling test at interview
