Software Asset Management Analysts

[Antman]

Hi,

Go and list on contractor club and you can get a 4% (? can't remember to be exact) finders fee for supplying people and cut out the middle men!

Ok, I meant 'won't' instead on will.

I also meant that I don't allow pimps to use this place as a free job site. If you were a PM or your client asked for direct resource, that's different.

What I meant was, tell them not expect to do this again.

I'm sure that your 'resourcing company' will be asking you to be their biatch too often, will they?

Nope. They found me via LinkedIn, and as far as I know, I don't know anyone working for them. When I say resourcing company, I should say more Consultancy. They do use contractors as well.
