Reply to: Is it normal to feel sorry for an agent?

[cojak]

I say say 'yes, but it's at an early stage'.

If they want me they have to work for me...

Why say no when asked if yyou have anything else on? I tend to say yes, but explain I'd rather not mention a client by name if asked. That way I don't come off looking like a lying twat. Like you.

Can you <cough> PM me her details, together with the skillset she recruits for. It's not that difficult to knock up a false-skill CV ==> a hot date

She is an Agent not a cleaner.

1)Business doesn't involve lying in my view
2)Bushiness is done between people, and involves relationships every step of the way

Wilmslow did not lie.

If business involves relationships then agents have alot to learn.

Why remorse? Business is business.

So you lied to her and now she's upset? I think a modicum of remorse is in order - treat them as you think is right, not as they treat you.

Why remorse? Business is business. On the other hand, if she wants a hot date with Wilmslow, then she should jump all over him. Whats personal is personal.

Did you say "It's Not You , Its Me"

Agent asks if I have anything on the table. Of course I day no, and of course my CV gets paraded – she has two interviews lined up for me in the same day.
This morning I told her about my offer and acceptance.
While she appreciates I called her, she feels betrayed I told her nothing else on the go and worried about egg on her face with two firms.
She will learn bless her – she even invited me over for a coffee…… She is half my age.

Will be an interesting coffee - I think she likes me.....

Who can blame her.

[tomtomagain]

I think she likes me.....

She only wants you for your references.

For the price of a latte. That makes you a cheap date.

[Old Greg]

Other way around - she believed me when I said nothing else on the go. Of course I said no to get my CV to the cheese desk, hence I am teaching her the ways of the world....

She is an agent. You believed her?
