I had a call from an agent last week - who after going through the usual spiel, then proceeded to inform me that I must supply her with at least one reference if she is to put me forward for the role (a role that she hadn't given me any details of yet - rate/company etc)
I politely declined.
Thanks - still to be confirmed what the new employment offer is. Either way I won't be considering it a long term thing and want to get out ASAP
I'd been considering contracting for a while but I guess now that my hand is (almost) forced then I may as well jump in
hehe, well after todays announcement at least I'll be used to that!
I actually read your first reply (before you edited :))
Is Monster pretty good for gigs, I never really liked it when looking for permie roles?
Hi,
First post so please be gentle :)
My (permie) company has gone into administration - seems to be more of a pre-pack job as a new company has been formed and they want to keep me on with some others.
However, as we are in a branch office, the expectation is that we will only be retained...
