I’m not looking for work and I don’t have an up-to-date CV, but my phone rings all the time …..
Unfortunately, it’s normally someone trying to sell me phone services. I’ve got a new landline and it takes a month for the TPS thingy to start to kick in.

10 minutes......??? I normally just click Submit and the phone rings...... you must enhance your skillset.Originally posted by MervalousWell i just put my Cv up in the usual places but said looking for contracts (currently permy) and someone called within 10 mins... it was a permy position though which is a shame but I said Im not closed minded and if something amazing came up Id be interested... I did say Id want about a 35% wage increase though so really just see whats out there.
Anyway lets hope the next calls are about contracts
