Agents email
"Hi Chef, I have spoken to a client about your details and they would like to have an interview with you after Easter.
I do not know what the specific role is however once I have more information I will let you know."
umm no rate, location, role, contract length, job sector
but an interview lined up 
I guess I'm supposed to accept the interview and be grateful for feeling so prepared
OR could it be a secondary tactic following on from last week's
" Could you send me your latest updated CV .. several clients .. already negotiating on your behalf (without my consent I might add)" email

EDIT: I replied to last weeks email with a summary of my skillset/experience and a note that I don't send standard CV's as I prefer to tailor them to each role and that I'm looking for work commutable from my new place and am not in a rush for bargain basement roles as gf chef has summer offLast edited by chef; 6 April 2010, 09:20.Tags: None
