I've worked through MBA when I contracted in Belgium in 2005. They were good, quick payment and they would hold nights out to meet us contractors and buy us booze (it wasn't a wild house party but for these type of details I recommend 'em).

I haven't worked through MBA but do have dealings with them regarding potential roles and have found them professional to say the least.

Zero who?

Never heard of Zerochaos.

Several people I know have worked through MBA and they seem OK. Certainly better than most of the other UK-style agencies.

Hi,

This is specifically for Belgium or Netherlands based contractors.
A group of us have to move agency to a fixed by my client choice, of either Micheal Bailey Associates or ZeroChaos in Belgium and The Netherlands.
I am not concerned with the agents personality, arrange my own extensions. Contract terms are being transferred as a condition imposed by the client on the agents.
All I am concerned about is the length of the payment cycle, and how reliably the agent sticks to it, and obviously late payment is an issue.

If anyone could spare a couple of minutes to share that would be great.

Many Thanks.

I've contracted through Michael Bailey Associates (MBA) in the Netherlands, and they are very good in all respects.
