    Benched? Looking for experienced dev to work for equity

    For over a year we've been building a web app using the Microsoft stack. There's some revenue coming in now and potential opportunities we need to exploit that require development work. If you're on the bench or can commit a chunk of time for a slice of the pie, PM me for more details. You'll...

    The Out-of-work Day...

    Good advice, and precisely what I did do. Saving mode can be boring :)

    The Out-of-work Day...

    Funny you should say that... took a break from the screen to pick up my dusty guitar, came back and have an interview tomorrow! Of course it's not in the bag, but at least I'm getting past the agent wall.

    Covering own interview expenses for contract abroad

    Thanks. Your comments validated my feel that asking for me to pay out a couple hundred quid when they aren't even willing to have a phone conversation first is madness. I owe you a beer.

    Covering own interview expenses for contract abroad

    Hi, this is my first contract so don't want to be screwed/short-changed because of my naievity. Been asked by an agency if I'm willing to cover my own expenses to attend a test+interview abroad. Suggested a phone chat with them first, but the agent says the test has to be completed first...
