BOOMED: House Prices Projection

[barely_pointless]

haha!

yeah, i spose it is a bit daft now i re-read it

i actually have a very good reason which i will state if it gets to negotiation. i cant reveal it here in case one of the interviewers is reading. its quality. honest.

easy peasy Brownie, this is a very common approach to getting contracts approved in OZ, the number of contract to permie roles that infest the place are increasing, I did one once and followed through, well you live and learn, never again.

Easy excuse to not going permie straight away, make a puffing noise, mention the interest rates, make another longer puffing noise, mumble something about debt stress (yeah like on 800 aud a day ) , insert another 3 second silence , a small audible whimper (not too loud , would not want to appear desperate) , then follow with a long sigh.

for the coupe de grace, finish it off with an agressive statement of needing to take care of a debtand then close the conversation.

they always fall for that been doing it for years, remember, given a basic competencey in your technical disipline, the rest of the the effort goes into the soft skills of managing the client.

blimey,

that's a novel negotiating strategy,

'i'm planning to say i need the extra cash for 6 months for something',

I'll try that one on my Boss/Agent and see how far I get

Went for an interview today in Weybridge.

Its a perm role but I am goign to try to turn it into a contract on my terms (no frikking way am I going PAYE).

They asked me what I would want to reloacte to London.

Well about £500 a day minimum. THat should get me a bedsit somewhere.

i'm going to try the same thing shortly at a company in sydney. without blowing my cover on here, i'm planning to say i need the extra cash for 6 months for something. i'll tell them that in 6 months i will be happy to go permie. hopefully in 6 months time i will have my feet under the table and will be able to call the shots.

what are your tactics for turning it into a contract?
