Do a proper Google search on them. Even a thread or two from here may appear.

The information I read indicates that you should avoid them at all costs.

They advertise a lot on Gumtree. They target naive Antipodeans' hoping to get work in London.

I've had several of their agents add me on Linkedin. From several of their posts they post your CV within their Linkedin feed to pimp you out. Basically seems like another layer of agency fluff losing you more on your day rate. They don't actually seem to have any real contracts.

Indeed.

Every agency has a "private database" and some of the roles that they get off clients don't make it to the job sites, this bunch ~~of cowboys~~ are just spinning you a sales line.

Run several miles, avoid, avoid, avoid.

I am close to the end of my first contract (2 years) and feel I need some help finding my next contract. They have a good spiel about "private databases" that have contracts which "pass through so quickly they don't get on to the job sites" (which I can kind of see as a possibility). But equally they want a slice of earnings (about 10%).

So I would really like to know if anyone has experience with them (good/bad), if they landed good contracts quickly and if they rates were higher to offset the chunk that they want in return (though I may have to swallow the 10% as its better to be earning than not!).

If these guys are not all they seem: are there any that are?

Cheers,
Mono.
