That's the thing with recruitment deals - everyone knows agents in the uk blag references and place false ads. , but if you don't, you don't get to do business.
Rubbish. The Rolls Royce deal was genuine - they didn't go asking for reference or posting false business deals to get more business in. You're going to be buried in an s-shaped coffin you crooked chunt. Of course, you'll be a lovely man if you fix me up with a contract in April, but given that you've got a memory span of a month, that's not a problem.
I got stung with the fake role/CV harvest from Hydrogen Group last month, then I spotted one a few days later that I thought 'That rate is far too good to be real', so ignored it. Then pimp from that very advert rings me up, says are you interested, so I send CV, do interview following week, get accepted, just going through on-boarding, looking to start next week.
That's the thing with the Rolls Royce deal - everyone knows business in Africa and Asia is done with "sweeteners" and "incentives". It's usually between 10 and 20 percent and call it a facilitation fee or whatever you like, but if you don't pay, you don't get to do business.
I thought in the UK it was called "the agents margin"
