You have not asked him for a reference, or were you not able to understand what he wrote you spud?

WHS. Usually any emails would be to confirm interview.

Q? - Can a agent make use of client co's HR reference(my previous client co HR wont directly hire - they use PSL)?. If my CV is not selected, I'd want to tell this guy - 'i've advised my client co HR to blacklist your agency 'cause you phish' or something to that effect.

They have no role at all. They would not dare throw up any sort of unnecessary barrier to the right candidate for the right job. I suggest you give them your previous agents as references.

WHS+1;

Usually when an agent has a real role and sees my CV as a perfect fit I know because they give off the impression that they would drive round to my house to get me to commit.

In the Job spec..

Candidate will be responsible for providing his/her own computer equipment and software.

So i can fack off with code when gig ends.... nice.

[Joe Bloque]

Seriously, i'd definitely send the linky if it comes to that. Thanks HAB.

You will also be required to provide a copy of the cover and back page of your passport

Wot! Like this? How odd!

[Joe Bloque]

If your CV is selected to be submitted to Client you will be required to supply us with ...

. I also got job specs and 'rate yourself 1 to 5' tulip.

But there is a real possibility 'unfortunately your application is not successful at this time'.

Wonder whats the next wobbly!

Ask them to name the client, if they cant do that then they are not serious.

confirmation of details from HR will suffice
