Tony, it does not matter hwere the agent is. It is where the job is. You may get lucky with a specialist local firm but that is usualy not the case.

LGM - That is my usual tactic. But what I wanted to do was get my CV before them before they post onto Jobserve. In the old days I used to pester the life out of the agents. But due to having worked dhaaan saaarf with all the shandy drinking chavs it seems that most of the contacts I had have moved on.Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

I was working through Nesco at the Staines job. They are in Cheshire. They were OK admin-wise.
Otherwise, have Hays got a branch up your way? I've worked through them a few times and found them to be good. Also, they pay quickly and weekly.Comment
