    Maybe your mind map's upside down - Isn't that what agents do to us?

    Do you still let the kids ride in it when you drive off on holiday?

    I've never had a contract that was advertised on these sites. Most of the jobs aren't real anyway it's just a dance for contractors and agents to introduce themselves to each other. Some people really flog these sites applying for anything and everything. That's just futile distraction through action behaviour.

    Phone people you know. Network. Find out who's doing what and who the agencies are on the PSL. Get people to recommend agency contacts.

    Damn! Just realised this is in General and I might have been helpful. Might as well post it anyway.

    Do you have a caravan?

    You must conquer your fear.

    What you need is a website for contractors with the writing 'IT Contract Search' on it. If you could find that, you'd be off to a good start.

    Well yes as..

    a) You posted it in the wrong forum. This is general. Gloves are off in here
    b) This gets asked quite a lot so a simple search would have found many similar threads
    c) You first post wasn't exactly inspiring

    And to be honest SpaceCadet and BigTime answered your question. Not sure what else you are expecting.
