    Agents are on fire today!

    Finish at end of the week.Still no new project or extension at Clientco. Plenty of verbiage but nothing signed yet.

    So decided to go back into the market. Spot two roles. Apply for first, sent email off for 2nd.

    Phone goes. Agent one. Seen your CV, love it, it's client X, what rate, got you a slot on Monday!

    Put the phone down, got a missed call and email from Agent 2. Then phone goes again. Got your CV, love it, what rate, got a slot on Monday by the way it's client X!

    Balls. Two different adverts with different locations, but no it's the same client.

    2nd agent was really pissed though as he knows MF has a 97% interview success rate.

    5 minutes from CV to interview!

    They're obviously on the ball today though.

    Was really hoping this was a thread about an agent being on fire.

      Hope the slot is only for a phone interview, if they can't get the location right, I wouldn't bank on the role being correct. IMHO

          MF shoots another contract.

          Pow pow pow.

          Bored with this contracting game.

          Hopefully my Plan B pitch to a major OEM later on this week comes off.

                    Not for a while. Offer me a job though, I think that duck could change.
