Dear XXX,

Apologies for the informality of email, but I am sending you this to gain an
update in relation to your current employment situation and availability for
work.

Here at Rullion Computer Personnel our specialist Security Clearance Division
is representing Clients looking for security cleared IT Professionals across
the United Kingdom.

Our recent records show that you have had some level of security clearance in
the past. Please let us know if this is still current and active (i.e. used
in the last 12 months). If you are no longer security cleared, please still
send us your CV and we will pass this on to the relevant team and update our
database.

Please respond to this email with an updated CV.

I look forward to hearing back from you,

Kind Regards,

Technically, they aren't doing anything wrong. It's only when they put people forward with SC clearance only (when it should be an open market) does it become wrong.

I get those all the time from pimps...

I'll usually just reply with my CV attached and nothing more.


Also i'm currently with Rullion, they are OK... Got me my current role without much fuss.

Dear Scooter? My cat was called scooter. Why would anyone write to him? Particularly since he was run over 3 months ago.
