If you need to ask that, then the best advice I can possibly offer is to stay permie and do your research properly. Read all the "Helpful Advice" thread posts, read all the "New to contracting" guides (there's one on this site, and another on the PCG site). Make sure you understand all of it. If you don't you will be like a lamb to the slaughter. If the cowboy agents don't screw you, Hector will.

Pretty obvious really. Its what you get from them If they advertised how much they got then whne you got your money from them you would know how much they're ripping everyone off for

Silly Question
Hi all. I am new to contracting and have been looking at jobserve. I see that they are nearly all agency placed adds and I am not sure how the rate is affected. For example if Agency X is advertising a position with a rate of £35 an hour, is that before or after they take their cut as the agency.
Many thanks
