Difficult days.

My 'pet' agent ('general' - not 'technical') reckons he is being squeezed from two directions:

LinkedIn is 'bypassing' him for specialist staff, and for 'general' hired-hands the new Agency Workers Directive has got rid of one of his main reasons for existance - firms avoiding employment law.

Mind you,he was an Estate Agent, and before that sold insurance and timeshare. Oh dear, how sad, never mind.

Because if he did he would have heard that Recruitment Agents would have been the farm workers of the past and that they are not sustainable jobs.
