A message to India based recruitment consultants...
I've got a company website, cos I'm a company like, well outside IR35 you see, and over the last two weeks I've had about 10 call from India, people actually looking for work (idividuals) ... perhaps the downturn is hitting them hard too ...
I had one last week who immediately upped the day rate by £100 when I told them I wouldn't talk to them at the rate they quoted.
I still wasn't interested.
I'd mind yer backs all you (Brit) pimps out there!

I got one for contracts at Deutsche Bank about 1.5 years ago, at first when he called I thought it was a scam and politely declined.
He called again the next day and when I quizzed them and found that they had no office registered in England I got concerned, when he realized I had picked up on this problem he told ME to p-off plenty quickly and ended the conversation abruptly.
