Thing is, everyone's market is different, some will be doing well, others less so.
Even in a buoyant market this holds true, its just some will be getting a much higher day rate than others.
When times get hard, you have to realise that there are plenty of people on the market to choose from and.......
a) People will be filling contracts direct as experienced resource becomes more important, as resource is limited.
b) Agents "pet" contractors will be made aware of and are applying for roles that never hit the job boards.

+1 to the skills shortage crap. There is a shortage of skills at £10/hour but not at £75/hour.Originally posted by sasguru View PostYou really are an ignorant chunt.
