State of the Market
Coming available for the first time in about a year and am a bit worried with the lack of random recruiter spam that's usually quite annoying. Every previous agency / client I've worked with is reporting basically everything being slowed down to a crawl and the few openings they did have are...- Mscott

Anyone dealt with Uniting Ambition before?
Hi, Quick update on this after a few months; The first line recruiter I dealt with was horrible but the directors were great and responsive. They've been late with paying quite a few times but have always sorted it the same day once notified. Overall I can recommend them as a decent agency.- Mscott

Addendum vs contract
Hi, So I'm starting a new contract and initially the agency has ignored everything we discussed and had to be chased for everything. So far very little new in my experience. However, they use a portal with all their documents and instead of updating the initial contract document, they keep...- Mscott

Gorilla Accounting vs BI Accountcy
I'm currently with BI accountancy but will soon move elsewhere. Michael seems like a skilled and friendly guy but sadly he's not my accountant. The others I've spoken to including my accountant seem inexperienced and I've had to chase them repeatedly to do their job. At the moment I'm looking...- Mscott

Accountants closing for the holidays
Hi, I have been with my accountancy for a while now and noticed the other day they are closing for almost 2 weeks over the holiday period. While I understand fully that permanent employees take holidays around these dates, i'm a bit miffed that I can't contact them regarding a new opportunity...- Mscott
