    Probably would've gone for that straight out of uni. 3 months paid work experience, 1 (hopefully) successful paid professional project on the CV rather than none. The money would probably buy you a street or 2 in that part of the world.

    Pro-rata, £17k in the North-East will get applicants. For students it is a good rate, for new graduates not unusual, and those with a year or two's experience who are unemployed will apply.

    As for the logic getting a student to build a system, seems a bad plan but hardly unheard of for a company to try and get cheap inexperienced people.

    £80 a day contract thats why, regardless of whether they say they want a grad or not

    and why would u hire a grad for a 3 month contract to build a system

    and its not about a bob with a pass it's about farming it out to bob companies when they say they cannot find anyone local

    The Bobs that I speak to cannot communicate in English so they should be excluded
    Secondly, Even if Bob has the right to work in the UK it doesnt give him the right to work overseas

    Advert
    • Flexibility to travel in UK and overseas
    • Good overall communication skills
    • Excellent spoken English

    YOU MUST BE ELIGABLE TO WORK IN THE UK TO APPLY FOR THIS POSITION

    What exactly makes you think that? They specifically ask for students or new graduates so unless Bob was doing a degree in the UK... in which case he's not really a Bob in the same way.
