Apply now - they may want to do phone interviews, which is what I do most of the time.

I'd apply now, i always insist on a telephone interview first anyway to avoid wasting my time and theirs.

Hi all,

I will be available for work in a couple of weeks, until then I will not be available for face to face interviews, since I am travelling.

My question is, shall I apply for contracts now and tell the agents that I will be available for work and interviews in a couple of weeks or shall I do it in a couple of weeks time, when I will be available for interviews and work?

Many thanks all

Depends really - I would wait until later on till you can get there within a week or 2. The mail storm is usually over in 2 days anyway (e-mail cv, reply, etc.etc)
