    Pondlife,

    he doesn't

    he's not from the .Net area

    he thinks a stakeholder in a project with a budget of £1M+ is a 'big hitter'

    like I said, in our work that wouldn't pay for the coffee

    I think he means his stakeholders are big hitters earning £1M

    Could just mean he's Dim Prawns new lackie though.

    MF,

    £1M stakeholders,


    I guess you are working in the SME sector.


    That kind of budget wouldn't even pay for the coffee on a .Net project.


    Milan.

    I thought the same, like to know where he's going, as the gigs I'm seeing are significantly less than that and that's for £5m+

    MF, for someone with a 100% interview win ratio you seem to spend an awful lot of time trying to get a contract.

    mf: "i've got yet another super high profile upper management senior vp director of very significant things interview tomorrow that suits me perfectly because i'm the ideal candidate for being a high flying senior management player in the very big time. i've never failed an interview (i have a 100% interview to win ratio) but maybe it would be a good idea to do some preparation even though i'm perfectly suited for a role that demands an ego of world domination size..." yawn.

    yes, preparing for an interview is a good idea. the less comfortable you feel the more prep you need. prep until you can answer the questions you wouldn't want them to ask.

    let us know how you get on when you get unbanned. we want to know if that 100% record is still intact.

    Not anymore, I've spent the last 14 years being really good at what I do, if there's something else I find that I need to cram...
