Agents will say absolutely anything if they think it might get the result that they are seeking.

Never believe a word.

I would think....."all agents are lying *****"

HTH

Tell him you might consider it if the right job came along, but you prefer contract work.

I said that I need to give it a lot more time before I choose a different path. I have thoughts on starting up a small business and I think that is more of an option than going permie.

He has just received a job spec for a tulip job with a large commision. He is looking for a likely candidate. He has probably been ringing round anybody who has been benched for a while.

Absolutely. He'll be telling you the opposite tomorrow if the sniff of a contract pops up.

or he is planting a seed to get you to think about reducing your rate.

**Hawkeye** · 23 September 2009, 10:32

I have said my rate was completely negotiable and have not fixed it down at all. Must be the fact he has a permie role on his books with a large commission.
