You are projecting.Originally posted by MrMarkyMark View PostSo, we are actually in total agreement then, you couldn't command £700-800 on the UK contract market.
Admittedly absolutely nothing, however, you seem to have fairly poor eye for detail and come across as both inexperienced and immature?

You are not skilled or experienced enough, its as simple as that.
There are many other reasons, one of which you have trouble with written communications, but we don't even need to go that far.

90K isn't really a serious offer it's a polite way of declining.
60-70K would be more like it, unless this is a hedge fund in the city.

Why? What you are trying to say?Originally posted by MrMarkyMark View PostNot really, just managing expectations.
Trying to let you down gently in the fact that no one would pay you £700 to £800 PD in the UK contract market.
You should have been ascertain that by some of the posts I made concerning a friend earlier.
That's the real problem, as I have said before, you are commenting on a market you don't work in, or know anything about.

A friend of mine went from £550 PD to 95K a year Perm in Investment Banking.
Was his contract underpaid, or was he lucky
