Sheesh! How difficult to get an interview?

Wow. That was odd. Got offered a perm role, held them off for a week and went back in to discuss terms. Landed up with a contract instead.

I mean I had the perm role in the palm of my hand and after further discussions around money they said, lets make it contract to perm to see if you're worth it!

Ummmm, doesnt that just mean they had doubts about you?? And you're celebrating? Still ........... if it makes you happy, I'll give you a dancing banana as well ......

WOW! Bloody hard to get an interview these days let alone an answer from an agent.

I've been 'shortlisted' for interview and managed to get my CV put in for 6 roles in the last two weeks with agents, but yet no interview. In fact, after the first couple of calls, not a dicky bird, not a sausage and the agent seems to disapear into the ether. Dont remember it being like that in my day.

Managed to get one interview for a Perm role directly and I've been offered that, but ideally I'd like to get on of these bloody contracts Im chasing!!!

Have to decide on Friday or risk losing the perm role

Yep. Finding it pretty much the same. Not being cocky but I've been contacted about roles I know I'd have a very good chance of getting once in front of the client.

Not getting a sniff. Must be others are asking for tulip low rates so getting asked to interview by the client.

Contrary to the government soundbites, there's an awful lot of people out of work and going for those gigs.

What did you do to Mordac?

I hope you did not punch anyone at your previous job

[MarillionFan]

I thought you had your own shop?

Yes.

I would also like to earn a living as well.
